Funds provided for trees cutback

Funding of €2,500 has been provided for the cutting back of the trees between the KARE entrance and the CPC entrance on the Curragh Road, writes Brian Byrne. The money was made available from the LPT funds allocated to Cllr Tracey O'Dwyer, and agreed at the recent final meeting of the Kildare-Newbridge MD.

Cllr O'Dwyer says she provided the funding to help activate the landscape plan proposed for the woodlands on the CPC grounds in that area, which are to be developed as an amenity within the grounds when the extension to the school is carried out.

A year ago, the woodland area was transformed by students at the college into a school forest, with trails, bug hotels and signs.
