Motorists travelling along the N22 Killarney to Tralee Road by night this coming week will be diverted due to planned water works.

Irish Water will close the road at Farranfore Village from 7pm to 7am each night from tomorrow (Monday) to Thursday night (October 7) to carry out night-time road works as part of Kerry Leakage Reduction Programme.

Diversions will be in place and will be signposted on approach to the area from all routes. The recommended diversion for traffic travelling from the Killarney area to Tralee and vice versa is via Killorglin and Milltown on the N72 and N70 national roads. Local access for residents and emergency services will be provided.

These road works are required as part of the replacement of approximately 1km of problematic trunk watermains with new 600mm ductile iron pipes in Farranfore.

"Irish Water understands this type of work can be inconvenient and will ensure our work crews make every effort to minimise any disruption these works may cause," Irish Water said in a statement this week.

Irish Water’s customer care helpline is open 24/7 on 1800 278 278 and customers can also contact them on Twitter @IWCare with any queries.

There were celebrations at Raheen National School this week as SNA Gráinne Lenihan presented a cheque for €5,302.23 to Principal Joan Mullane, the proceeds from her recent skydiving fundraiser in aid of the school.

Gráinne organised the ‘Her Health, Her Power’ initiative last July, which culminated in her completing a skydive in August to raise funds for Raheen NS. The money will go towards the development of the school pitch and a new perimeter race track for the entire Raheen community.
Pictured at the presentation were members of the parents’ committee Joan Bowler, Máire O’Leary, and Ann Marie Donovan, along with school staff Norrissa O’Donoghue, Conor Coffey, Linda Farrell, and Mark Egan, joined by the delighted students of Raheen NS.
