Public lighting concerns prompt fatality warning in Rathmore

A warning has been given that someone will be killed by a vehicle in a Cork/Kerry border town because of poor public lighting and a lack of pedestrian crossings.

A deputation from Rathmore Community Council highlighted safety issues and expressed frustration at a lack of progress.

Introducing the deputation at a Killarney Municipal Authority meeting, Niall Kelleher (FF) said Rathmore was an important gateway to Kerry and deserved the same standard of infrastructure as other gateway towns.
