Cork is Ireland’s fastest-growing city, but you wouldn’t know it from how it’s run. The basics, the functional, everyday parts of a city, aren’t being looked after.

Green spaces? Neglected. Paving? Patchwork. Maintenance? Slowed down by layers of bureaucracy. Even simple fixes, like painting poles or upgrading lighting, get lost in risk assessments and endless meetings.

We don’t lack opportunity, we lack the will to act. And until that changes, Cork will keep growing without ever truly improving.
