1. Public Rights of Way
The Planning and Development Acts 2000-2020 (Section 10(2)(o)) states that ‘the preservation of public rights of way which give access to seashore, mountain, lakeshore, riverbank or other place of natural beauty or recreational utility, which public rights of way shall be identified both by marking them on at least one of the maps forming part of the development plan and by indicating their location on a list appended to the development plan’.
Policies and Objectives relating to Rights of Way can be found in Section 14.8 of the Draft Kerry County Development Plan 2022-2028.
It is important to note that this is not an exhaustive list and that the omission of a Right of Way from this list shall not be taken as an indication that such a Right of Way is not a Public Right of Way.
It is proposed to add ROW 6b, ROW 8a and ROW 41 to the list of public rights of way that was included in the Kerry County Development Plan 2015-2021.
Individual ROW maps are linked from the reference number in the table below
