However, once finalised, a funding stream will need to be sought to enable it to be delivered. Anluan Dunne, of Mountain Biking Kerry (MTBKY) gave a presentation on pump tracks at the January meeting of Tralee Municipal District.
MTBKY had been working with the council and former Cllr. Norma Foley on the project for the past two years.
It is hoped that the Tralee development will feature a pump track, mountain bike skills course and a children’s cycle development area.
