The '10-minute' concept that could revolutionise regional towns like Tralee

The initiative aims to have all services accessible within a short walk or cycle from home

A new report has found that 76% of people rely on cars or vans to access work or education in Tralee, while as little as 12% walk, 2% cycle and 5% use bus transport. Picture: Domnick Walsh.

A ‘10 Minute Town’ concept is being considered for Tralee after a report identified crucial areas for improvement in the town.

A report commissioned by the Southern Regional Assembly focused on three key regional towns - Carlow, Ennis and Tralee to form part of an action plan to improve overall access for people living in these towns.
