Bord says yes to SCR scheme

AN BORD Pleanála has given the green light for a major development with over 700 new homes on Dublin's SCR. Players Square, a joint venture between Bee Bee Developments Ireland Ltd and the Walls Group, will be built on a 4.32-hectare site on the former John Player cigarette factory site and the Bailey Gibson industrial premises.

The scheme will comprise 16 buildings from two to 12 storeys and will include a 16-class school, two crèches, two community centres, medical centre, supermarket, offices, restaurants and cafés. A pool and leisure centre are also planned.
