CCTV ruled out on Kerry bridges

CCTV cameras in areas where missiles have been thrown from bridges onto cars and other vehicles has been ruled out by Kerry County Council.

Earlier this year, a Garda investigation was launched following a number of incidents of criminal damage involving large stones, at Ballymacthomas, outside Tralee.

Councillor Pat McCarthy (FG) has called for covert cameras to be placed on bridges crossing national primary roads to prevent people dropping stones and sandbags on to vehicles passing below.
