Schools in Kerry are being encouraged to apply for funding to improve cycling and walking infrastructure.
The Safe Routes to School programme will provide government funding for active travel infrastructure to primary and post-primary schools.
The programme aims to create safer walking and cycling routes within communities, alleviate congestion at school gates and increase the number of students who walk or cycle to school.
