When Will North Kerry Flood Mitigation Works Start? – July 15th, 2025

Short-term measures to protect against flooding in Listowel and nearby Killocrim, which were meant to begin in March, have not yet started. The matter was raised at the recent Listowel Municipal District meeting, where councillors expressed frustration at the time the works are taking. Over 100 people had to be evacuated from their homes when the River Feale burst its banks last November, in what was described as a once-in-a-150-year flooding event. Jerry spoke to Cllr Jimmy Moloney.
