EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
We in CPS Property have been appointed to announce the opportunity for one or more parties, public or private partnerships to come forward with an expression of interest to develop this extensive parcel of land totalling circa 21.5 Acres. All matters will be treated as strictly confidential. All proposals will need to conform to the planning guide for this area. CPS will assist with any queries you may have.
FEATURES
WHY?
The case for this investment is clear. Newry can benefit from its border location if this development can be delivered. The proposal will deliver significant construction, operational employment, substantial rates to the local council and rise Newry’s profile as a key business and logistics hub for the island of Ireland.
One of the key features of a successful local Northern Ireland economy will be the ability to continue to move goods freely and quickly around the island and to provide secure, easy and quick access to key ports and gateways into and out of the region. Investment in the key transport corridor and key gateways of Belfast, Derry, Larne and Newry/Warrenpoint ports are critical to the long-term sustainability of the province.
LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
The proposed lands are of irregular shape with access currently available from the A28 Armagh Road. In due course access will be also available from the A28/A27 link road that leads to Carnbane Industrial Estate.
The lands have a complex of old former residential institutional buildings located on the Southwestern part and graveyard; which occupy circa 40% of the site.
The site slopes down to the Bessbrook River where there is a large belt of trees available to screen development of the lands. Whilst located in the countryside the lands clearly make little contribution to the amenity value of the countryside. The Eastern part of the site that runs along the river is liable to flooding and is inside a floodplain.
PROPOSAL DETAILS
There are 12 broad elements to the proposal; being:
On the Southside (outside the application site) of the Armagh Road is a large area of parking is proposed to provide stock parking for vehicles to be stored as part of the car showroom businesses built in the area (No. 13). This will be subject to a separate application.
