Location
Newry City is located in the south-east of the province and occupies a gateway position on the Dublin to Belfast transport corridor.
Considerable investment in the road infrastructure now facilitates full motorway access to the north of Dublin being just 61 miles to the M50 ring road, with an estimated travel time of 58 minutes.
The improved transport network has also improved connectivity with Belfast (Westlink some 38 miles to the north with an estimated travel time of 42 minutes. Belfast International Airport is 45 miles to the north and Dublin airport is 61 miles to the south. Newry Train Station, which provides frequent services to both Belfast and Dublin Connolly, is 3 miles to the north of the site.
Warrenpoint Harbour is Northern Ireland's second largest port and is located 8.7 miles to the south-east via the A2 dual carriageway with an estimated travel time of 18 minutes.
The lands are strategically located on the edge of Newry City, immediately adjacent to the A1 Newry Bypass (Dublin - Belfast Corridor), between the Forkhill Road and Dorans Hill Road junctions with current access to the lands via Bernish Road.
Description
This substantial holding extends to c. 11.75 acres (4.75 hectares) and occupies a prominent position located directly adjacent to the A1 Newry Bypass which forms part of the Dublin-Belfast corridor. The holding benefits from a significant frontage onto the A1 of approximately 240 m. The majority of the site is predominantly flat with an area of higher ground in the northern part of the site. The site had previously been used as the construction compound during the construction of the A1 Newry Bypass and comprises a substantial area of compacted ground/hard standing.
Opportunity
The situation next to the A1 and positioning between Dublin & Belfast along with an estimated daily passing traffic of 23,000 vehicles makes this a particularly compelling location for a new Motorway Services site on the northbound carriageway of the A1 bypass, offering a combination of strategic positioning, strong traffic flows, and cross-border connectivity. The closest Northbound Motorway Services are located to the North at Halfway Road Services, Banbridge (c.17.8 miles) and to the South Castlebellingham Applegreen (c.22.9 miles).
The site offers exceptional flexibility and is well-suited to a diverse range of commercial uses. Its strategic roadside location makes it ideal for Motorway Services, while also presenting strong potential for Hotel & Leisure development, capitalising on sustained intercity travel demand.
In addition, the site is highly attractive for haulage and logistics operators, tourism-related ventures, vehicle showrooms, and private medical facilities. This breadth of opportunity reflects both the scale of the site and its prominent positioning along a key transport corridor, enabling a wide variety of high-profile and high-performing uses.
Site Area
The site extends to approximately 11.75 acres (4.75 ha), as shown outlined red (for identification purposes only) on the plan overleaf.
Planning
The site may be suitable for a variety of uses subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
