Common sense … not so common 🤪Cian O’Meara (Fermoy, 2024-11-12)

The toll location is punitive to Fermoy. It’s an outdated model that needs to be scrapped by a government with a vision. Let’s see which politicians can actively support this.Colum Sisk (Kilowrth, 2024-11-12)

Even though I don't live in Fermoy it's the town id like to do business in and visit more but I'm usually put off by the traffic. I work in Moorepark and it's faster for me to leave work and drive to Mitchelstown which is 13KM away to do my shopping etc than it is to go to Fermoy which is only 3.8KM from where I work. The traffic is choking the town.Tom Leddy (Araglen Kilworth, 2024-11-12)

Traffic in Fermoy has me at breaking points sometimes. Could take you 30 mins just to run to the shop. We seem to be the only Town in the country who have the slip roads leading into it tolled. Doesn't seem very fair.Emer Feerick (Fermoy, 2024-11-12)

For the benefit of Fermoy Town. Too much traffic avoiding the Toll.It's suffocating Fermoy town.

The streets and pathways in Fermoy are dangerous for all users particularly pedestrians and cyclistDave Bartley (fermoy, 2024-11-13)

The toll should be removed. I suspect they are not making much money there. It is just a blocking mechanism to force cars into the town. Must be the only place in the world where people are encouraged to drive through the townDeclan Okeeffe (Fermoy, 2024-11-13)

I think these suggestions would greatly improve every day life for the community of Fermoy in both sides of the river.The connection to the Waterford road, east of Fermoy is desperately required. It's mind boggling how this has not happened!

I am signing this petition as I can see from being a business owner in Fermoy that the traffic issue is damaging my business . People are turned off of coming into Fermoy as they are constantly stuck in traffic .Lourde Bryan (FERMOY, Co. Cork, 2024-11-13)

The traffic issues stop me from physically going to Fermoy. I end up shopping online instead of spending my money locally and supporting local.It also decides which supermarkets I will go to, what times I will visit my elderly parents and activities I will allow my children participate in.

The TOLE was built in the wrong first day ... It should have been built beyond Fermoy , north of the Moore Park roundabout leaving Fermoy free of surplus traffic trying to avoid the Tile and Mitchlestown with its existing ring road would have no problems ... The solution is simple but the government and the country council were always short on linked up thinking which can be seen with the poor decisions made down the years ... The awful mess at Amber with the awful Ghost Estate and across from Amber the Town's Industrial Park ... Empty for twenty years ... The awful state of our once historic Weir plus the Mart sight standing empty ... The list goes on and one wonders has any TD or Counsellor been in the town over the past while as the above problems have been around for up to twenty years ... There are many more local problems out there and in the past totally ignored and forgotten by our so called local representatives ... It's not funny as it's our Town slipping down the slipperery slope while the powers that be draw big monies and seem to do so little 🐔John O Connor (Fermoy, 2024-11-13)

I'm sick and tired of the constant gridlock traffic through Fermoy on a daily basis. Lorries, trucks, toll dodgers, etc.The bypass was supposed to relieve traffic through the town yet it is worse than it has ever been.

This petition was discussed at our recent AGM and received unanimous support. We are a group of 80 elderly members from Kilworth and find Fermoy's traffic and accessibility issues very frustrating. We would like to see all prospective TDs from this constituency support these objectives.Kilworth Active Retirement (Kilworth, 2024-11-17)

Traffic in Fermoy is beyond ridiculous. I drive through the town most days and traffic is largely crazy. The watergrasshill toll should be removed as it’s really a slap in the face for the people of Fermoy and locality as well as deterring drivers off the motorway and pushing them through town. It’s costing local commuters to and from Cork dearly for the pleasure of going to Cork. It’s clogging up the town and can’t be good environmentally for fuel consumption and air quality. A slip road onto the bypass and pedestrian bridge is a great idea too and combined would enhance the town and make it more inviting for people to visit, shop and enjoy all that Fermoy has to offer.Clem Dempsey (Fermoy, 2024-11-18)

These proposals are needed and would benefit the town of Fermoy. Its a disgrace to see the Ambulance trying to navigate through traffic jams in a need to get to accidents, and sick elderly people, and on top of that the fire brigade have to do the same thing who are called to traffic accidents and house fires, it just wouldn't happen anywhere else in the world.Mark Fanning (Clondulane, Fermoy, Co.Cork., 2024-11-24)
