Latest jewel in the crown of Marina Park; the Elevated Tree Walkway leading to Barrington’s folly, woodland walks and picnic areas. Access from the Cork Harbour Greenway beside the playground and slides. Spin out also onto the Marina Prominade and (shortly) the Atlantic Pond. #Cork

Industry estimates all (all!) motoring-related taxes in Ireland is about €6bn. That's VRT, motor tax, excise on fuels, VAT on repairs. The kitchen sink.
NTA estimates cost to the taxpayer of motoring is about €0.14/km, which exceeds that in total.
