Galway County Council has given the green light for a housing development of 30 houses, apartments and duplex units in Clifden.
Roonith Properties has been given planning permission to build a new housing estate on the northwest end of Clifden on the N59.
The mix of housing will comprise 8 one-bed units, 3 two-bed units, 5 three-bed houses; and 14 two-bed duplex units.
The site will be served by 47 car parking spaces, 36 bicycle parking spaces, and pedestrian connectivity to the existing footpath network.
The developer intends to provide three duplex units to the County Council for affordable or social housing in order to fulfil their Part V planning requirements.
Planning permission for the residential development was granted by Galway County Council with 43 conditions attached.
The council stipulated that a further Road Safety Audit of the plans must be carried out before the development commences, and all recommendations from it implemented, along with a third audit after construction is completed.
All of the homes must also be fitted with electric vehicle charging points, and are restricted to individual buyers in the first sale.
