It's only 1/2 done, but #TuckeySt reimagining is looking very positive to a formerly dreary part of #Cork.
Wonderful to see pedestrianisation bringing life back to the street.
Well done to CorkCityCouncil!😀

Delighted to celebrate newly-minted PhD, Eibhlin Halpin, for wonderful work on air pollutant NO2 and sensor development!
Well done for sticking it out through covid, building a solid foundation for new sensor methods & getting some great data on pollution from school travel.

Came across this positive impact of lower speed limits: lower vehicle insurance costs.
Makes sense.
Though the real benefits are in reduced injuries and deaths

Utter horror of driving in #Cork tonight:😠
15 min to drive 300m past Mercy Hospital.
How slow is that?
1) it's HALF the ave walking speed of a NONAGENARIAN (>90y.o.)
2) it's slower than nonagenarians using ASSISTIVE DEVICES
So much better by bike or foot!

Love this not-so-new cycle parking @ucc.ie! ❤️
This space used to accommodate only 2 vehicles.
Most days it's now over 20 bikes (& some scooters)...a 10-fold (!!!) increase.
Brilliant re-thinking of space!

Great visit to #CastletroyCollege in #Limerick to discuss analysing #airquality with students & @antaisce.bsky.social & @epaireland.bsky.social.
Wonderful to work with engaged students — looking forward to seeing what they do with the data!

If you're wondering about tonight's #airquality in #Cork (& prob rest of #Ireland), the short answer is "bad".😟
corkcitycouncil 's AQ website gives a good local overview.
Low PM2.5 over the weekend (v. windy), but pollutant levels are now high with cold, still air🧐
