Financial Outturn: Breakdown by scheme type The Authority has divided its Sustainable Transport Measures Grants into five broad sub‐programmes. These are:
1. Cycling/Walking Programme, supporting physical improvements to tackle particular barriers to walking and cycling and to improve the walking and cycling environment;
2. Bus Network Programme, targeted at providing bus journey time savings, improvements to bus reliability throughout the whole bus network and passenger information/facilities;
3. Traffic Management Programme, targeted at appropriate schemes to improve the effectiveness of traffic movement in balance with other modes of transport;
4. Safety Programme, aimed at providing a safe travel environment for all road users, especially more vulnerable road users (pedestrians and cyclists); and
5. Other Projects (signage schemes, traffic studies, Intelligent Transport Systems, Goods‐focused projects, etc.).

Cycle Route: Ballyvolane to City Centre Investment 2013: €39,456 Ballyvolane is a highly populated, developing suburb, approximately three kilometres to the north of Cork City Centre. It is within 15 to 20 minutes cycle time from the city centre. The scheme will provide dedicated cycle lanes, improved pedestrian facilities and improved bus facilities and priority where feasible, along the corridor. Phase 1 of the scheme provides a significant upgrade to the North Ring Road / Ballyhooly Road junction and the southern approach road thereto (see drawing). Part 8 planning was completed for Phase 1 in 2013. The 2013 allocation also has progressed detailed design work.
Boreenmanna Road Improvement Scheme Investment 2013: €29,387 (overall cost incl. 2011/2012 is €0.7m) The scheme provides pedestrian facilities at what was a dangerous location, where there were no footpaths on either side of the road adjacent to the junction with Crab Lane. The carriageway was widened to allow the introduction of a cycle lane and a new footpath and a pedestrian crossing has also been provided. The overall result is a significantly safer environment for pedestrians, cyclists and general traffic. The Part 8 planning process was carried out in late 2010/ early 2011 prior to detailed design and tender documents. Construction commenced in November 2011 and was substantially completed in October 2012. The 2013 grant completed the financing of the scheme.
Skehard Road Improvement Scheme Investment 2013: €197,901. Total incl. 2012 is €1.7m This project replaced a sub‐standard roundabout with a traffic signal controlled junction at the junction of Skehard Road and Well Road. The project has delivered safe pedestrian crossing points including the realignment of the carriageway, provision of a bus lane, cycle lanes, footways, and other associated works such as signage and road markings. The original layout consisted of a narrow section of road with a roundabout at one end and a footpath on one side only. The overall result is a significantly safer environment for pedestrians, cyclists and with the introduction of bus priority infrastructure along the direct transport corridor between Mahon and the City Centre. The Part 8 planning process was carried out during the first half of 2011 prior to detailed design and tender documents. Construction commenced in May 2012 and substantial completion of the scheme was achieved in January 2013.

Development of Regional Transport Model Phase 1 Investment: €88,500 The objective of the Regional Transport Model is to extend coverage of the CASP transport model to include all of Cork City, Cork County and Kerry. Phase 1 of the project involves the zone system development and the road network development. Further development phases will follow on thereafter. The new regional model will be consistent in approach methodology and software platforms as the other regional models being developed. The completed model will result in the obtaining of up‐to‐date state‐of‐the‐art transportation assessment tool for the south West Region which will have superior public transport, demand modelling and highway assessment capabilities. Model is due for completion in late 2014/ early 2015.
Kyrl’s Quay Realignment Investment 2013: €160,326. Total incl. 2012 is €0.9m Kyrl’s Quay is located in the city centre island on the southern bank of the River Lee’s north channel. It extends from Cornmarket Street in the east to North Main Street in the west. The scope of the scheme, with a total area of approximately 7,000 square metres, consisted of the widening and reconstruction of carriageway and footways and the inclusion of cycle lanes in both directions. This has significantly enhanced the pedestrian facility. The provision of cycle lanes together with pedestrian crossing facilities along desire lines, enhances the sustainable transport infrastructure at this city centre location, and substantially improves pedestrian and cyclist safety. The cycle provisions will be incorporated into the links between UCC and the City Centre being provided under a separate scheme. The project also includes burying overhead ESB cables, the installation of new public lighting, traffic signals, road markings & signage and tree planting. The Part 8 planning process for the combined Cornmarket Street/ Kyrl’s Quay scheme was carried out during the first half of 2009 and the scheme was developed in three phases via three consecutive contracts. Construction on the third phase, Kyrl’s Quay, commenced in May 2012 was substantially completed in December 2012. The 2013 grant completed the financing of the scheme.

Expected Benefits: Reduction of traffic congestion at schools and workplaces, reduction of emissions, increase in active travel, healthier workforce and students In schools a number of measures are undertaken including education and awareness programmes, advice and assistance on school travel plans, promotion of cycle to school, bike maintenance classes, cycle training, bike parking, promotion of walking, Park and Stride, public transport and carpooling among students and staff A similar programme is undertaken in relation to workplaces. During 2013, the schools that had participated in the Smiles Project were contacted and offered support to encourage continuation of the successes achieved in that project. This included the further development and implementation of their school travel plans and a continuation of promoting sustainable travel. In addition, a number of new primary and secondary schools were identified and engaged with, in particular in the Douglas and Gardiners Hill areas, with varying degrees of commitment. Businesses ranging in size between 80 and 250 employees have been approached and to date just one has committed to changing their travel habits, and to reduce car use. The Behavioural Change Project is one that involves a change of mind‐set and a continued programme of engagement with schools and workplaces will bring about a modal shift over time.
Cycling & Walking Strategy ‐ Improved Facilities Investment 2013: €210,000 This scheme sought to provide improved pedestrian facilities on Churchfield Avenue and Ringmahon Road to facilitate safer pedestrian access to local services and the public transport network. The work included the construction of build outs, the provision of pedestrian crossings and the enhancement of personal security by improving public lighting at both locations. This project was completed in 2013.
Cork County Council Carrigaline Green Route Phase 1 Investment 2013: €309,171.43 This project involved the provision of bus priority and active travel measures on Maryborough Hill in Douglas as part of the Carrigaline Green Route. Works carried out in 2013 comprised construction of Green Route 680m in length, incorporating 300m bus lane, 560 uphill cycle lane, 180m downhill cycle land and footpaths for full length. Maryborough Hill is one of the major approaches to Douglas village as is in the study area for Douglas Land Use and Transportation Study approved in July 2013.
