The provision and improvement of regional and local roads, including bridges, in its area is a matter for Kerry County Council to be funded from its own resources supplemented by State grants.
In August last year, applications were invited from road authorities for funding under the regional and local roads Specific Improvements Grant scheme in 2008. The proposals submitted by Kerry County Council included an application for grant aid for a bridge at Ballinagare. The 2008 regional and local road grant allocations to local authorities will be announced shortly.
