Call to illuminate bridge linking counties Cork and Kerry rejected
The bridge in Kenmare has long been a landmark in the tourist town. County councillor Patrick Connor Scarteen (FG), who lives locally, wants low-energy lighting installed on it.
“This bridge is the gateway to West Cork and the Beara and Iveragh peninsulas and aesthetic lighting would enhance the location,” he said. “Low-level, recessed, lighting would be cost effective and environmentally-friendly. It would be lovely and would make the bridge stand out at night,” he said.
