Kerry councillor criticises TII for lack of joint up thinking

A Killarney councillor has criticised, what he called, the lack of joined up thinking with regards to roadworks in Rathmore.

From next Monday, a 24/7 stop-go will be in place on the N22 outside Macroom for two two weeks.

Cork County Council is recommenting HVGs from Killarney travel via Rathmore and Mallow to Cork, however there is already a stop go system in Rathmore, with roadworks there not due to finish until September.

Cllr Niall Kelleher, who is from Rathmore, said Kerry County Council first heard of these new works yesterday and will be assessing the area on Monday.

He said the appropriate notice for these roadworks wasn’t given to the public.
