Kerry County Council has strongly defended the decision to cut down a large number of trees along the Dan Spring Road and said the choice to fell them was based on safety advice from several experts.
The council said it had no option but to remove the trees after it became apparent - based on two independent expert examinations - that they were storm damaged, in decline and posed a safety risk to the pedestrians and motorists on what is one of Tralee s busiest roads.
The decision to cut the trees has been met with widespread anger with many taking to social media to express their fury at the council s actions.
