Tenders sought for €40m project at Thomand Park

THE €40 million Thomond Park development moved a step further yesterday when the Munster Branch of the IRFU sought expressions of interest from builders.

An advertisement has been directed at contractors and service contractors who are interested in entering talks for the design and construction of two stands with respective capacities of 7,643 and 8,013.

It read: “The development will consist of the demolition of the existing West Stand and West Terrace and dwellings at No 1 to 28 Knockalisheen Road and associated outbuildings.”
