COBH EDITION 16TH FEBRUARY - DIGITAL VERSION

At a recent meeting of Cobh Municipal district I had a motion up for discussion on the parking or rather lack of parking spaces in Cobh. The purpose of this motion was really to try and identify and understand the reason why we have so little parking available in the town and to see what could be done if anything to improve the situation. Over the years some key areas in and around the town were developed for housing when in hind sight maybe these areas should have been kept for parking.

Following the recent announcement of the Volvo Cork Week ‘Super Early Bird’ competition<br />

With a whopping 45 entries before the end of December, and huge international interest, indicators<br />

show that Volvo Cork Week is shaping up to be the biggest yet with over 50% of total<br />

With Volvo Cork Week’s new format, and again teaming up with Ireland’s principal sponsor of<br />

sailing events Volvo Car Ireland, and local dealership Johnson and Perrott at Mahon Point, the<br />

from a more diverse demographic. This, accompanied by six nights of world-class entertainment,<br />

will make for a world-class event in 2018.<br />
