Fears storm-damaged beaches will not reopen for Easter

Fears are continuing that some storm-damaged top beaches in Kerry will not be open to the public at Easter time.

The case of beaches in Rossbeigh and Kells was yesterday highlighted by local independent councillor Michael Cahill who called on Kerry County Council to carry out repairs prior to the next holiday period.

“It will be a huge loss to businesses in the Killorglin and Glenbeigh areas and throughout south Kerry if seaside sites are not open to the public in time for Easter,” he said.
