Chamber: Road access tops concerns for visitors to town

A NATIONAL route linking Cork and Kerry continues to be a key negative factor for tourists travelling to Killarney, it has been claimed.

Members of Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce, who promoted the town at a recent international travel show in Birmingham, discovered visitors’ main concerns related to road access.

“It was surprising that while there were only a few mentions of costs, the vast majority of negative comment related to the much-debated question of access,” chamber executive Jerry O’Grady said.
