Advance facilty that will create jobs for Carlow “still on track” says Pat Deering

It’s hoped an Advance Facility to bring jobs to Carlow will be open by early 2019.

Back in 2015 it was announced that the IDA had identified Carlow as one of nine towns around the country that was in need of an investment boost.

However, it was expected that construction work on the site – that’s believed to be in the vicinity of the Braun site – would have begun earlier this year but that never materialised.

Around 16 million euro is to be invested there, and speaking to KCLR News, Carlow TD Pat Deering says he has now been assured that plans for the facility are still very much alive and will enhance the entire south eastern region greatly when it’s finally built.
