Locals in the Co Kerry town of Tralee have been urged to help shape the future vision of the Town Park.

Located in the heart of the town, Tralee Town Park is one of the largest urban public parks in Ireland, covering 35 acres and comprising manicured gardens, walkways, a wide array of tree species, a community garden, the Rose Garden, a large playground and more.

Kerry County Council is currently developing a strategic plan for the park, known locally as 'The Green', and is inviting submissions and opinions from park users and the wider public.

Members of the public can complete a survey regarding the future of the park, which is available online or at County Buildings in Rathass, Tralee Library and the Tralee Municipal District offices at Princes Quay.

Kerry County Council's Municipal District Officer, Jean Foley, said: "The strategy being developed will examine the resources, facilities, activities and potential uses of The Green to determine how the current provisions can be improved for all to enjoy.

"The community's views are fundamental in the formation of this strategy. As a first step in the consultation process, Kerry County Council has developed this questionnaire to assist in ascertaining your views and vision. We are encouraging everyone to have their say."

The closing date for completed surveys is Friday 21 February 2020.
