Planning lodged for new Cricket Ireland stadium

Planning and digital renders for a new stadium and high performance centre for Cricket Ireland in Dublin have been lodged by Sport Ireland. The plans include a floodlit stadium with a seated capacity of 4,240 spectators and a two-storey pavilion, where the sport’s high performance centre would be located. A proposal for an extra 7,760 non-permanent seats, which would bring the total capacity up to 12,000 for selected events, has also been put forward. Development of a new stadium was granted by the Irish government in August, with the project earmarked for completion in 2028. Read the full story here.
