The Lee2Sea will play a crucial role in the future of Cork City with regards to not only transport and tourism, but also health. 

Encouraging more to cycle and walk with a connected Lee2Sea route spanning from Ballincollig through the city and out along the Harbour towns and beyond will help us to achieve our targets for emissions, especially important nowadays with the huge role climate change plays in all of our daily lives. 

It is immensely important Cork City Council works closely with Cork County Council and the Lee2Sea Greenway Group, locals and others to deliver this full route in a reasonable timeframe - the benefits this would provide to both locals and visitors alike is extraordinary. There is no doubt it would help hugely in removing a lot of cars & traffic from our roads, encouraging more to take sustainable modes of transport to get to work, school, town, home and more, not to mention the numerous health benefits active travel provides to society.
