Controversial town plan gets go-ahead

A TOWN with 10,000 homes is to be built in west Dublin after approval was granted by An Bord Pleanála yesterday.

The strategy allows for a fast-track planning process for the phased development of houses and amenities including roads, schools and shops at Adamstown over the next decade.

It has also provided some good news for former Fianna Fáil TD, Liam Lawlor who could benefit by €2.5m from the project.
