TOBIN Consulting Engineers were appointed for the Urban Regeneration Development Fund 2020 O’Connor Square to Church Street Link, Urban Garden, Civic Space & Remote Working Hub Project in September 2023.
The project will link O’Connor Square and Market Square over the Tullamore River, provide open space which will act as a pivotal connection between the two key squares, build on the existing remote working facilities in Tullamore with innovation space in the town centre and contribute greatly to placemaking. Site clearance will take place this week as the TOBIN team commence surveys, design and plans for Part 8 planning and public consultation.
‘We are excited to be part of this key project in the broader Tullamore Urban Regeneration and our Design Team is keen to bring our experience and expertise to work with Tullamore Municipal District to deliver an attractive and sustainable solution’ Brian Gallagher, Project Director, TOBIN
‘It is great to see this project commencing. The link from O’Connor Square to Church Street will be beneficial for Tullamore Town Centre and will incorporate the historic ‘Hidden Bridge’ behind the Library into this project’ added Cllr Declan Harvey, Cathaoirleach of Tullamore Municipal District.
