Project Overview

The Masterplan set out a framework for the delivery of 1500 new residential units and infrastructure at this 40 hectare site on the edge of Arklow County Wicklow. The Masterplan was formulated on the basis of a strong hierarchy of streets and green spaces linked together by pedestrian and cycle routes. Proximity to open space and views in and out of the site were key drivers along with sensitivity to the marsh lands of the Avoca river to the south and the historic pyramid of Arklow in the graveyard to the north. The plan identified a location for a Local Centre at the heart of the development, along with creches, new schools and areas for Active and Public Open space.
