Explore Cork vs Cork Safety Alerts

Welcome to ‘Explore Cork’, a mobile app designed by Cork County Council to help visitors navigate their way around the many things to see and do in Cork. Nestled in the South West of Ireland between Ireland’s Ancient East and the Wild Atlantic Way, Cork is Ireland’s largest county. Known as ‘Ireland’s Maritime Haven’, Cork has over 1,000km of coastline and the world’s second largest natural harbour. It has many internationally renowned visitor attractions such as Mizen Head Footbridge, Spike Island, The Jameson Experience, Fota Wildlife Park, the legendary Blarney Castle and Doneraile Court & Park to name but a few. There are 8 islands in West Cork, 7 of which are inhabited and each with their own unique culture and history. With Cork regarded as ‘Food Capital of Ireland’, there is no shortage of food offerings, ranging from budget friendly to Michelin Star, all of which you can explore on the app. Whether you are a local uncovering a hidden gem for the first time, or a visitor looking to immerse yourself in all that Cork has to offer, this app will help you along your way.

Cork Safety Alerts keeps you ahead of what's happening on Cork's roads: Collisions, closures, flooding, weather warnings and power outages, reported as they happen and cleared when they're gone. Version 2 is a ground-up rebuild of the app, designed and developed in-house by the same team that brings you the alerts every day. LIVE ROAD STATUS A live board of Cork's major routes: the N40, Jack Lynch Tunnel, M8, N25, N28, N22, N20 and West Cork's N71. See at a glance whether your road is clear before you set off, and tap any road to see what's affecting it. ALERTS THAT RESPECT YOUR TIME Choose exactly what reaches your phone. Follow only the roads you actually use, pick how much traffic detail you want, and turn on quiet hours to hold non-urgent alerts overnight. Road closures always come through. REPORT WHAT YOU SEE Spot something on the road? Send a report with a photo and location in seconds. Reports are reviewed by our team and shared with the whole community. EVERYTHING CORK, IN ONE PLACE Local news and travel updates, Met Eireann weather and warnings for your area, live traffic cameras, Jack Lynch Tunnel and Cross River Ferry status, flight disruptions and power outage maps. Emergency numbers are built in and work offline. Cork Safety Alerts is run by a small local team. Preferences stay on your phone: no account, no sign-up, no profile.
