New mayors get to work in county

PROPER ring roads to ease congestion in Tralee is a priority of the town’s new mayor, Miriam McGillycuddy.

Health was another priority, she said, and there was a need to ensure that Kerry General Hospital, in Tralee, maintained adequate services for the county.

“We need to do a wish list of services that need to be provided locally but are not being provided and to lobby government,’ said Ms McGillycuddy, Labour, who succeeded Norma Foley, FF.
