A High Court challenge has been brought over Cork City Council's decision to approve €6m road upgrade to help open the City's docklands for more development. The challenge has been brought by the Save Cork City Community Association CLG, which describes itself as a not-for-profit company whose aims are to protect the heritage, civic and urban fabric of Cork City. Mr Healy said the proposed works approved by the council also form part of an overall scheme called Lower Lee Flood Relief Scheme. As a result, the group has brought proceedings against Cork City Council, the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government, Ireland and the Attorney General. The group seeks an order quashing Cork City Council's decision of September 9 last to approve the proposed improvement scheme.
