10,000 object to   road plan for park

The Save The Green group, in the Kerry county town which organised its first campaign more than 40 years ago, yesterday said the park was sacrosanct and it will continue to oppose any road developments there.

“When the park was purchased as a public amenity about 90 years ago, it had 120 acres but is now down to 35 acres. We’re determined to protect what remains and will continue to object to any further erosion of the park,” said group chairman Tommy Collins.
