Kerry County Council admits deliveries to businesses have been impacted by a measure introduced as part of the Safe Streets initiative.

There have been calls to remove bollards, which ensure people can adhere to social distancing on narrow footpaths by allowing them to walk on the road.

John Breen, Director of Services with Kerry County Council, says some businesses have been impacted by the bollards in relation to deliveries.
