Supermac’s in second bid to win forecourt approval

Supermac’s supremo Pat McDonagh is making a second bid to open a Barack Obama-style motorway plaza for Co Clare.

Mr McDonagh yesterday confirmed that fresh plans for a motorway stop outside Ennis are to be lodged with Clare County Council in the coming days.

The first step in lodging the plans required — a newspaper notice concerning the planning application — has already been published.
