  • Part 8 Development – Midleton Cycle Network Scheme
    Part 8 Development – Midleton Cycle Network Scheme Introduction/ Development Description The aim of the proposed development is to create a new network of cycling paths for the Midleton town/ Ballinacurra urban area. The proposed route will connect Ballinacurra, Midleton and Water Rock including the residential areas in Ballinacurra and future residential development in Water Rock with the Town Centre. The scheme also connects Gaelscoil Mhainistir Na Corran with the Town Centre via an off-road greenway. There are other schools located along the route which can also be integrated into the scheme. The scheme also connects with Midleton Train Station and the Midleton to Youghal Greenway. Compatibility of Proposal with relevant Development Plans / Guidelines National Standards The National Cycling Policy Framework 2009 – 2020 aims to create a strong culture of cycling in Ireland with an aim that 10% of all trips will be by bike by 2020 Smarter Travel – A Sustainable Transport Future, A new Transport Policy for Ireland (2009- 2020) County Development Plan 2014 The proposed cycle network covers the functional areas of “Midleton Environs” as set out under the East Cork Municipal District LAP 2017 and the Midleton Town Plan 2013.

  • Pedestrian and Cycle Route from Ballinacurra to Midleton
    Transport & Mobility Forum Senior Engineer Cork County Council Traffic and Transportation, Floor 11, County Hall, Cork Transport and Mobility Forum, Cork Via online consultation portal www.transportandmobilityforum.com [email protected] c/o Cork Environmental Forum Bernadette Connolly Mount Carmel, Kilcolman Enniskeane, Co. Cork P47 C578 23rd December 2020 PART 8 Public Consultation – Response Pedestrian and Cycle Route from Ballinacurra to Midleton Dear Sir/Madam, The Transport and Mobility Forum, Cork (TMF) is a representative group of organisations who have a common interest in sustainable travel *. The TMF fully supports sustainable modes of travel measures and policies. Sustainable and Active Travel (walking and cycling) helps reduce congestion on roads, improve air quality, supports a low carbon economy, reduces noise pollution and improves public health. The TMF welcomes and supports the proposed plans outlined in this scheme in their provision of active travel infrastructure in Midleton. This scheme helps realise the objectives outlined in national (NDP, NPF, Climate Action Plan, SDGs), regional (RSES South) and local (CMATS, County Development Plan) plans, policies and strategies. We commend Cork County Council for its vision for the East Cork area and look forward to the positive impact this and other complimentary schemes (Midleton- Youghal Greenway, Bury’s Bridge to Carrigtwohill cycleway, the N25 Transport Corridor upgrade and the Midleton Town Urban Regeneration Scheme) will have on the local community and hinterland. There is great potential for Midleton to become a model town in County Cork for sustainable mobility and high quality public realm and this scheme is an essential step towards that goal. Its rail connection to key employment areas such as Carrigtwohill, Little Island and Cork city offers commuters an alternative to long and stressful commutes via the N25.

Systematic visual inspection of the sub-tidal seabed and intertidal/ foreshore areas surrounding the proposed impacts did not reveal any material or features of archaeological significance.

  • William, James, Hanora, Michael, John, Daniel
    The Kellys The Kellys he Kelly family has Irish roots. An examination of Irish records shows that as recently as 1900, TKelly was the second most common name in Ireland (Murphy was fi rst) and there were Kellys located in many areas of Ireland. According to the “Irish Family Names Directory,” Kelly was predominantly found in the counties of Derry, Galway, Leix and Meath, with Galway being the largest concentration. Signifi cant numbers can also be identifi ed with Counties Donegal and Roscommon. These are all areas that are in the midlands to northern regions of the country towards the West. There are also some Kellys who hailed from West Cork where the famous IRA revolutionary Michael Collins called “home.” All of these areas were Gaelic-speaking well into the 1800s. Prior research about the Kellys was unclear about the exact location of their home in Ireland. It remains unspecifi ed but we have made progress (see below). Various individual recollections formed most of the evidence, including my aunt & cousin Bessie Kelly Beirne (1893-1986). Some of these indicate that our Kelly ancestors declared that they were from Clonakilty, County Cork, Ireland. The Immigration and Naturalization Service and several census year records indicate the year of immigration but not the specifi c birthplace. Some local cemeteries and headstones as well as some newspapers record the Kelly origins as Ireland, County Cork and/or Ballymacarder (sic). It should be noted that none of our immigrant ancestors could read or write and may have responded to census and INS questions with the last location that they recall in Ireland.

  • Topical Issue Debate with Minister Ross
    Topical Issue Debate Transport Infrastructure Provision 3:00 pm Pat Buckley (Cork East, Sinn Fein) Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source I welcome the opportunity to speak to this matter. The R630 is a regional road linking Whitegate with the N25, a national primary road at Midleton, and Lakeview roundabout in east Cork, which serves the Cork to Rosslore Europort via Waterford city. This regional road from Whitegate also carries traffic from adjoining areas such as Upper Aghada, Lower Aghada, Rostellan, Saleen, Ballycotton, Clyne and Ballinacurra, just to mention a few locations. Whitegate village can boast to be the home of the only oil refinery in Ireland but the most startling fact is that it accounts for over 40% of Cork's road tonnage, and it travels on the R630 all year around. There is also Aghada power station, which is Ireland's largest, and this means the regional route is extremely busy. The Minister can understand why. Unfortunately, all this traffic must enter the N25 at Lakeview roundabout at Midleton, which is constantly choked with long tailbacks every morning. Midleton town council had approached what was then the National Roads Authority, now Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, a number of years ago about having an extra slip lane at the junction between the R630 Whitegate route and the N25 to alleviate this very problem. Unfortunately, over the years nothing has happened. The commuters who use this route day in and day out have grown very frustrated with the lack of progress. More worrying is the question of safety in the area, particularly with regard to emergency services and the ambulance service in Midleton.
