Plans for a 75 million euro retail park in Carrickmines have been approved.

The scheme involves an 84,000 square metre addition to the existing park.

It will include shops, restaurants, retail warehouses, 130 apartments and leisure facilities including an indoor skydiving area.

However according to the Irish Times, transport agencies have raised concerns about the impact on the M50, if the site was further developed and

it’s expected objections to the plans will be submitted to An Bord Pleanala.
