Traffic Management Study for Midleton & Carrigtwohill


The Chamber submitted a comprehensive observation document to the engineering company responsible prior  to Christmas with a copy also sent to Midleton Town Council. The Chamber expressed serious concerns in relation to a number of aspects of the plan as we believe that the net result would be to downgrade the town of Midleton through inadequate traffic access roads. To date we have not received any acknowledgement from the engineers conducting the review and we will continue to monitor the situation as it includes proposals to introduce pay parking to Midleton which, as our survey last year showed, the vast majority of our members are opposed to. 
 
Signage


In spite of coverage in the East Cork Journal last summer, motions by various councillors and an assurance to the Chamber in September that the sign to Midleton that was removed on the N25 coming from Cork would be replaced "within weeks", the sign is still absent. The Chamber continues to make representations to Cork County Council to replace the sign with a similar one to what was there previously.

Post Codes System Must Be Future Proofed


Published: Monday February 1, 2010
 

Chambers Ireland’s Digital Policy Council has today (01/02/10) welcomed the Department of Communications Energy and Natural Resources’ (DCENR) invitation to tender on the implementation of the national postcodes system.

Claire Cunningham, Council Chair said, “The introduction of a future proofed postcode system has the potential to benefit all service users by way of optimising direct mail service offerings, increasing mail volumes and supporting a viable universal postal service around the country.”
