The Tullamore Grand Canal Harbour Masterplan, jointly commissioned by Waterways Ireland and Offaly County Council, has provided the prism through which future transformation and regeneration of the harbour area can be envisioned. Grafton Architects as the appointed consultancy team, have culminated their assessment of the study area in a Masterplan that reimagines the harbour area through a catalogue of scaled development opportunities. The Masterplan study area also includes the Grand Canal Harbour and adjacent lands, the Canal Spur Line enabling access into the harbour basin, and Young’s Store – a three-storey former warehouse with an approximate floor area of 275 square metres fronting the canal along Convent Road.

Public Consultation ran from 13th of June 2024 to 11th July 2024. A report on submissions was presented at the Tullamore Municipal District meeting on the 10th October 2024. A link to the Tullamore Grand Canal Harbour Masterplan is below.
