    I see there's planning permission for a restaurant. It's under Frisby's name, so it doesn't say what restaurant is going in. The floor plans have the grill specifically marked as a charcoal grill, so maybe Burger King?

    It's also got pizza oven and pizza rack. I wouldn't read to much into what the units are labelled as.

    I do hope it is BK though.

    Is that what’s going beside the Costa in Ardkeen or O’Brien’s at Ardkeen Stores?

    Yes,long overdue and welcomed,but as per usual it's pitiful compared to other parts. Howth in Dublin is set to receive over E20+million for development...

    An Taisce have taken legal action against An Bord Pleanala and the State aimed at overturning the planning permission granted to a cheese manufacturing plant that would be located in Belview Science and Technology Park.

    Their grounds include claims that environmental impacts of cheese production that weren't properly taken into account for the purposes of the Environmental Impact Assessment.

    So the cheese makers are not blessed? An Taisce full of vegans by the looks of it.



    So it looks as if An Taisce's real target is the size of the national herd, if they can stop the processing sector they can stop herd expansion.

    They lost the action and are appealing. More money for the legal boys and girls.

    With Supermacs drive through and McDonalds drive through being so close to each other, i fear for the traffic at the RSC roundabout during busy periods. Already its often backed right up beyond the roundabout when McDonalds are busy in the evenings and weekends. Add in a Supermacs and the Cork Road will be impossible to navigate. Unless they are planning both the entrance and exit to the Supermacs on the PC World side.

    Even so, the road is going to be a nightmare to use when this kicks off.

    Will definitely need to be looked at as if the flow of traffic going into the drive through backs to the entrance then you have a situation where the road backs up to the roundabout.

    Always find that it's in wet days that Macdonald's does be so busy with the queue going back to jysk. Think it's cos there's nothing else to do but get a bit of food in wet weather

    Yeah its very busy now and will only get worse with more drive throughs. I wouldnt mind if it was nice food but its absolute bland, tasteless rubbish! McDonalds chips are nothing but paper.

    The queue for McDonalds should ease a lot when you can actually go inside to eat, pre lockdown there was hardly any backed up traffic to get in there

    What’s going on beside Costa coffee in Ardkeen (where tesco and Homebase are)

    New building going up.



    EDIT: Ignore, I read back a bit and see it’s going to be Camille Thai.

    Another q. What’s going on at O’Brien’s off-licence beside Supermacs in the real Ardkeen (I think;))

    the planning says -

    "extension to, and change of use of existing sandwich bar outlet to shop/retail unit, encompassing existing adjoining stores/boiler house, together with elevational alterations and all associated site development works, all at"

    so it is anyone's guess

    I think it's the Ardkeen bakery expanding to cope with demand.

    Not sure if this is the proper thread but the above is a link to a nice bit of council bashing....one of the councillors fights back and a couple row in behind him but for the most part it’s a rant about how wrong WCCC have gotten things and how they haven’t a clue in general.

    One of the family members confirmed to me it's Ardkeen bakery.
