Goal Three - Invest in Limerick’s Infrastructure, project its natural and built environment and unique heritage mix

We will:

• Integrate sustainable travel infrastructure into new developments and optimise the continued investment in roads and transport infrastructure in partnership with the Transport Infrastructure Ireland, National Transport Authority and the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport and deliver a smart integrated transport network that improves connectivity and increased use of sustainable travel modes.
• Advance key transport infrastructure projects over the next five years including but not limited to the N/M20 Cork to Limerick motorway, Foynes to Limerick Road Improvement Scheme (including Adare Bypass), O'Connell Street Public Realm Scheme and the Limerick Northern Distributor Road.
• Protect our infrastructure through the provision of flood protection schemes under the CFRAMs and other flood protection programmes.
• Promote opportunities to enable the development of new cooperative housing models for specific groups including affordable housing, adapted housing and smart aging homes.
• Support public land activation and work with other state agencies to deliver supporting infrastructure, increasing the supply of social and affordable homes.
• Improve the public realm infrastructure to improve accessibility for people with disabilities, and so that all people can live, work and access culture and recreation in a safe and friendly environment.
