€100m centre waits for approval

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

The proposed complex incorporates 50 retail units, a food court, sports bar and bowling centre along with an imposing 110-bed hotel, boasting a conference centre, swimming pool and parking for 850 cars.

An application for planning permission was submitted to Waterford City Council last week.
