A Bridge to Wandesford Quay

Cork’s newest bridge is a new pedestrian or cycle bridge that spans the River Lee from Wandesford Quay to Lambley’s Lane. You’d be forgiven if you’re not familiar with either area, as they aren’t exactly the most trafficked areas in the city.

If you’re curious, Lambley’s Lane is off to the side of the old Beamish & Crawford brewery, and the bridge is worth a look at night. Henry shared a photo of the bridge a couple of days ago. Thank you, Henry, for pointing out where it was. I had no idea.

If you look carefully, you can see all the way down Tuckey Street to Oliver Plunkett Street. During the day, you might even see down to Parnell Place, maybe?

Here’s the latest news from Cork City Council about the bridge and the newly reopened Bishop Lucey Park. Photos of that to come…

The Passage West to Monkstown Run

The bike might be a little small but it got him to Monkstown in the end, I hope.

I absolutely can't get my head around the (mostly) men who beep to show annoyance. Esp when I'm indicating to turn on a v. foggy night.
I am lit up to the nines, 3 flashing & a solid red light, in yellow from my neck to my knees.
I've been in a car, going the same slow speed as traffic is coming towards me & indicating to turn right hundreds of times without being beeped.

Horns need to be just as loud inside the vehicle as outside.
