Kerry County Council is working on the early stages of the Tralee to Listowel Greenway.
The council outlined the project was in its early stages, following a motion by Fianna Fáil councillor Mikey Sheehy at the recent Tralee MD meeting.
Cllr Sheehy called for the Tralee to Fenit Greenway to be extended to Ballyroe.
Speaking at the Tralee Municipal District meeting, councillor Sheehy said there’s an opportunity now to start looking at extending the greenway.
He said extending the Tralee to Fenit Greenway from Bawnboy to Ballyroe, would be good for people in the north of the county.
In response to his motion, Kerry County Council says this extension will form part of the Tralee to Listowel Greenway.
The council says it’s currently working on the early stages of this project and have completed the environmental screening process.
Following this, the council will be commencing public consultation and will engage with the landowners adjacent to the proposed route.
Kerry County Council told the meeting it will also engage with businesses at an early stage during the consultation process, once it commences.
