KERRY County Council has advised the public that the northern section of the public car park in Fenit will be temporarily closed to the public from Thursday, March 14 for a period of eight weeks.
This is to facilitate Liebherr Container Cranes Ltd., which requires additional storage space in Fenit for a short period due to an unavoidable shipping logistics issue.
To offset this, Kerry County Council has commenced construction, earlier than planned, of a new car park in the nearby O’Sullivan’s field which was granted planning permissions in 2023, and this facility will be available for use by the public from Monday, 25 March.

The elected members of Tralee Municipal District have been briefed on the matter and unanimously agreed with the proposals given the circumstances.
While the Council and local councillors acknowledge that there will be temporary inconvenience, they welcomed the commencement of the new car park which will substantially increase the car parking capacity for the benefit of the village ahead of the summer season.
