Why this application matters

Replacement supermarket

At Lidl on Athgarvan Road, Newbridge, the proposal would replace the existing 1,746 sq m discount foodstore and ancillary off-licence with a part single- and part two-storey supermarket of 2,556 sq m, including a 1,742 sq m net retail sales area.

Expanded retail site

The development extends and reconfigures the established store site, with adjusted vehicle and pedestrian access, parking, landscaping and public-realm works alongside renewed boundary treatments and signage.

Previous site proposal

A prior permission application for the same Lidl site proposed replacement of the 1,746 sq m store with a 2,415 sq m two-storey discount foodstore and a 1,650 sq m net sales area, establishing a recent replacement-and-expansion concept at this location.

Servicing and low-carbon infrastructure

Associated works include EV charging, cycle parking, roof-mounted solar panels, public lighting, drainage and utility modifications, waste storage, refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment, and an electricity substation and switch room.
