What about you?
Perhaps you cycle in Cork and think cycling infrastructure could be so much better. Maybe you're tired of cycle lanes that disappear when you need them most. Perhaps you want cycle lanes to be fully segregated from other traffic so that your kids can cycle safely. Or you think traffic laws protecting cyclists should be prioritised and enforced, not ignored. Or maybe you're concerned about how Ireland’s high car-dependence continues to drive climate change? If these issues are important to you, here are some simple steps you can take to get involved!
