Work to begin on controversial Cork flood defence project by That_Technician_439 Tags:ireland 5 comments Limericks defence is probably in more need of attention If/when sea levels rise…… wouldn’t it just be easier to build a gaint flood wall all around Ireland ? And when they’re finished with that, they can get started on a tidal barrier, which is what they should be starting now. Badly needed to be honest, that area always floods when we get heavy rain. The real long term solution is to re-venetise Cork, [uncover the rivers that once ran down its main streets](https://www.askaboutireland.ie/_internal/gxml!0/2ocqn930ubywvi8z0wl9dhefnm6z926$pdgshc7zvc0mlj9l338rn08id5he01b) and give every Corkman, Corkwoman, and Corkchild older than 6 a canoe.
