The estimated cost of the South Kerry Greenway along a section of the Ring of Kerry is now over €70m, Kerry County Council has confirmed.
To date, almost €22m - in excess of the 2019 estimate for completion of the entire route - has been allocated by Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) and the Department of Transport. However, a quarter of the route, just 7km, will have opened by Easter weekend.
