Yeah noticed that when going to Lidl yesterday. Starting to look very tidy.
I wonder how many people will park in Maddens for quick drops to Aldi ?

I think the mind set is probably more likely the other way round, people parking in Aldi car park and visit Madden's, especially with both shop doors so near each other.

I wonder which car park will be the easier one to get back out of? Madden's is problematic if turning right for Navan direction, I expect Aldi will be problematic too if there's a few cars queued up on the Lagore Road trying to get onto the main street - time will tell. I really do think there was a missed opportunity to include the Lagore road junction and the pedestrian crossing outside the bank into the Lidl junction. I bet it will be done once the Meath County Council come up with the idea themselves!!!

According to a Facebook group : Damian O'Reilly loacal FF councillor.

On going issue with council and contractor over one condition of planning which is hindering the conclusion of the project.
I have council management and contractor now trying to sort.
When this matter is sorted, council can grant road opening licence for final works and shop will open 8 weeks after.

it’s to do with road opening licences and changes to contractors etc etc

I noted on Tuesday evening / night last, there was road works on the main street outside Costa just down from the Bus Stop, I think it was ESB Networks, I wonder could this be related to Aldi as I think some of the services was brought from outside Costa to Aldi, did they get the Road Opening License?
