Why this application matters

Industrial expansion

The proposal would expand an established warehouse operation at Caherroyn, Athenry through a 3,395 sq m extension to the existing warehouse and a separate 2,118 sq m warehouse for storage, logistics and manufacturing.

The existing warehouse was permitted under Pl. Ref. 05/5047, with its permission extended under Pl. Ref. 10/841. The existing L3107 access junction was permitted under Pl. Ref. 02/1375 and would continue in use.

Integrated operational site

The site would increase from 1.296 hectares to 3.31 hectares and include a new L3107 access, HGV circulation yard, 11 loading bays, 103 parking spaces, secure cycle parking and staff facilities.

Infrastructure and environmental works

Associated works include on-site flood attenuation through a pond, stoned attenuation areas, permeable surfaces and drainage infrastructure, alongside lighting, landscaping, pedestrian facilities and boundary treatments. A Natura Impact Statement accompanies the application.
