Kieran Ruttledge
Chief Executive - Tralee Chamber Alliance

We believe that this is a critical piece of infrastructure and has enormous potential for good in our village. This is the catalyst needed to drive on other projects in Fenit village. It is also very important in terms of a social amenity as the approach road from Tralee to Fenit is very dangerous.

Mike O’Neill
Chairperson - Fenit Development Association
