North Main Street - GreenDense North-West Europe Interreg Pilot Project - Cork City Council

Questionnaire to gather information on North Main Street

Cork City Council is one of the six European Cities and three expert organisations who are part of the North-West Europe Interreg GreenDense project. The project is helping to address climate change impacts in densely populated urban areas, with a focus on creative greening that delivers environmental, health and social benefits to the whole community. This project aims to evaluate new ways of greening, applicable to the specific context and constraints of the city, in order to create a healthy ecosystem - rich and visually attractive environment for the city's residents and visitors alike. This survey will gather information which will be used to develop greening initiatives for North Main Street and help build towards a more climate resilient, biodiverse, healthy and inclusive city.
