UP TO 1,200 jobs for Waterford have been promised by the backers of a huge urban development, which was yesterday given permission by An Bord Pleanála.

WATERFORD is losing out on almost €1.4 million in salaries monthly because of a planning delay in relation to a proposed construction project in the city.

WATERFORD will have its very own Dundrum-style shopping centre within three years if permission is granted for a newly-proposed €100 million project.
