An Bord Pleanála Approves First Planning Phase Of New Development On Old Dell Site In Bray

The site has been lying idle since 2006 when Dell relocated to Cherrywood with the loss of 1,000 local jobs.

A slightly altered version of the new design will see a mix of residential and commercial properties including a nursing home and an office block.  

Some locals had expressed concerns the planned 4 storeys would overlook their homes and restrict their views of Bray Head.

The new design will stretch to only 3 storeys in the north and east of the site. 

Fianna Fáil Health Spokesperson Wicklow TD Stephen Donnelly has welcomed the first phase of the planning application.
