    yea i am aware of that. my question was if a truck comes out of the new warehouse and wants to go to dublin how does he get from the new roundabout across the dual carriage way?

    The new roundabout will be on the dual carriageway (5 arm roundabout I think is planned) with one of those arms for access to the relief road and consequently the Lidl Warehouse.

    so what happens now? do they have to wait for any objections or can they move ahead with construction when ever they like?

    They have to wait for objections I believe. Interested parties have 4 weeks to appeal to An Bord Pleanala.

    You can only appeal if you submitted an official objection during the planning process.

    Was just wandering who owns the old " Irish ropes hostel " Beside the whitewater shopping centre. It's a terrible eyesore when you come in to town from the Killcullen direction surely if the whitewater own it they would have developed it.

    I think there’s some sort of protection on that building, which is madness as yes if it’s the same building that I think you’re on about it really does need to be knocked

    The decision date got pushed back to 6th February.

    Decision made - permission granted with some conditions. Reading the report it looks like the reviewer didn't give much weight to the concerns of the residents of Roseberry Hill regarding traffic and sanitation.

    Thanks for the link Circular Flexing. As I live in RH, this needs serious scrutiny before commenting further.

    I'm also interested about this. Last I heard, plans had been submitted to the CoCo. Haven't seen them yet myself.

    my understanding is that it has or  it is due to go to tender very soon. It was due to go to tender towards the end of last year but not sure if that happened in that timeline.

    Tender has been and gone and was successful as far as I know the preferred contractor is being chosen.

    Not to much longer until the construction starts.

    I believe the County Council housing development on Athgarvan road is well ahead of schedule , expected to be finished by June. Watching progress on a daily basis and can't believe the amount of insulation going into them. The engineer tells me they will be r1 rated and a few candles will heat them. They also have solar panels, one of the workers says they could have built seventy normal houses for the money it's costing.

    Private houses in Ireland are usually built so badly I wouldn't be surprised. Council properties have always been built to the actual standards rather than some fly by nights version of them.

    Where's your evidence to make this statement about private houses?? My house was built in the boom ( 2006 ), and I have to say no problems so far.

    Hi folks,

    This has been appealed to An Board Pleanala. Not sure who has appealed but it should be on council website next week.

    If I had to place a friendly wager, I'd say Dunnes Stores...

    Speaking of Dunne's they must be the most anti Newbridge shop going. Opposition opens up Dunne's build a wall which Roger Waters would be proud of.
    Now this ( I agree with the previous comment on the opposition coming from Dunne's).

    I drove past their car park yesterday, & am amazed how people still shop there.

    You could be right. They made a submission during the planning process not objecting or supporting but just to be kept informed. If it is them, a delaying tactic. Only other likely scenario could be the developers appealing conditions of planning permission.

    You can object if you only made an observation. Appeals must come from a someone who lodged an original objection. Only the likes of An Taisce can object after the original planning process is complete.

    The developers of the Courtyard SC have appealed to ABP. Presumably appealing the conditions (possible financial appeal).
