Oakwood campaign has a happy ending
Not long ago, the National Roads Authority and Kerry County Council proposed to put the new Tralee/Killarney road on a route which would have desecrated the magnificent oakwood rich in flora and fauna with trees some hundreds of years old.
It was not to be. Over a decade ago, on a damp, wet and windy Sunday evening, a group of environmentalists with vision and hope met in Tralee to form the Save Ballyseedy Wood Committee.
