Be vigilant for wild deer on wexford roads

Wild deer are becoming an increasing hazard on our roads.

There is now an estimated one hundred and fifty thousand wild deer in the country with the majority of them located in County Wicklow and now spreading into North Wexford. Just south of Wexford town a deer caused a serious road accident in the past few days. Mayor of Wexford Frank Staples says measures need to be taken to address the problem.
