Killarney

<h3>The temporary closure of Plunkett St to vehicular traffic could be extended by another six to 12 months.</h3>
The town centre street was fully pedestrianised to allow food businesses to serve meals outside and to facilitate social distancing during COVID-19.
Other measures included the widening of footpaths on New St and High St.
The current temporary closing of roads order expires on December 31.
A new public realm plan is set to be launched for the entire Killarney area early in the New Year. This is currently in the design stage and it is proposed that some of the temporary measurers introduced during the pandemic will be incorporated into the new plan.
“These temporary measurers will be reviewed, and some of these measures will be extended, and we need to ascertain each build out [on footpaths],” said Angela McAllen, Killarney Municipal District Manager.
