Prior to today’s announcement, each Local Authority was asked to consult with local residents and landowners and identify road and laneway projects where works could start immediately and be completed this year.

The announcement has been welcomed by Minister for Education and Fianna Fáil Kerry TD Norma Foley and Kerry Fine Gael Deputy Brendan Griffin.
