The closure is to facilitate the introduction of a shared space public realm on The Mall which will see the installation of a new paved surface.

Throughout the works, The Mall and Bridge Street areas will remain fully open for business and pedestrian access will be fully maintained at all times.

• Traffic diversions will be in place but access for emergency services will be maintained.

• Works will be carried out in phases to minimise disruption.

• The taxi rank on The Mall will close and will move to a new permanent 24/7 location at the Abbey Court Car Park near Boots.

• For the duration of the works loading/deliveries will be facilitated in The Square with light commercial vehicles entering via Abbey Court and exiting via Dominic Street between 8am and 11am in the mornings.

• Kerry County Council will maintain direct contact with retailers on The Mall to ensure that any concerns or queries they may have are dealt with promptly.
