If you live or work near Cook Street, Marlboro Street, Princes Street, Grafton Street and Rochford’s Lane, Cork City Council is inviting you to have a say in how they should be improved.

“This project seeks to enhance the vitality of Cook Street, Marlboro Street, Princes’ Street, Grafton Street and Rochford’s Lane with regard to the built heritage, allocation of space (day and night-time), the use of coordinated high-quality materials and street furniture, improved lighting; greening and provision of age-friendly passive seating/gathering places to rest and play while accessing or remaining in the street or space.” said a spokesperson for Cork City Council.
