Councillors hit out at county’s neglected roads

THE condition of some Kerry tourist routes is so poor that some local people are no longer changing their cars.

That’s according to Killarney-based Independent councillor Michael Gleeson, who said many such roads were in a deplorable state.

“We can’t get it through to the Government and to the National Roads Authority (NRA) that we are no longer in the ghost train era. People ask me why I haven’t changed my 1997 car, but why would I?” he stated.
