Works at the junction of The Mall and Denny Street will necessitate closing the Mall to traffic from April 24.
THE Mall is set to close to traffic from April 24 and won’t reopen to vehicles until November when the transformation of the area is complete.
In a press briefing on Monday, Kerry County Senior Engineer, Eamon Scanlan, outlined the timeline of works for the town centre.
The contractors are on schedule to complete works to make Denny Street a two-way by the start of May, however, works at the junction of the two streets will necessitate the closure of the Mall to traffic from April 24. During this time, Denny Street will still be one-way.

It is expected the work will take a week and then the two-way system will be introduced. Works will start then on The Mall and it will stay closed to traffic for the duration of the works which will finish in November.
Mr Scanlan stressed that every effort will be made to minimise disruption during this period and wanted to get the message out that Tralee town centre is open to business.
