Happy New Year !

It is great that we can bring such good news in the first post of the year. Following negotiations CIE have given Kerry County Council the authority to act on their behalf in dealing with the redevelopment of the line and any issues that may arise.

As you may be aware clearance work on the line began in late 2010 but later stalled. These works were required to allow Kerry County Council’s engineers to survey the line in order to prepare plans for the line.

Since then Kerry County Council were awaiting permission from CIE to act on their behalf.

We have been informed that Kerry County Council staff are now progressing plans for the line.

Hopefully it will not be long before we see this amenity come to fruition !

That's great news alright Amadain, let hope there is some action on it soon, apparently is in not a huge job, so if all goes according to planned if it could quite possibly be open for the summer.

Also just to let you know that there is a thread about this already

MODS can you merge them ?

It is critical that the "authority" given to the council will stand up in a court of law otherwise the project will stall again. it will be a great facility for North Kerry if/when it is completed.

Perhaps the MODS can 'delete this thread' as the other thread "Tralee to Fenit Greenway" is there already. Sorry missed it when starting this thread. Apologies.
