Around 475 New Jobs To Be Created During Junction One Redevelopment

Around 430 construction jobs are to be created after the owners of Junction One retail park in Co Antrim announced plans to invest £30 million to redevelop the site.

The Lotus Group confirmed it is proposing to create new shops, new food outlets and a new boulevard entrance to the retail park.

The firm claims the redevelopment will create around 475 new jobs.

Director Alastair Coulson said: "When we bought Junction One we inherited a retail park that was neglected for a number of years and suffered from a lack of investment.

"We expect that further investment will be triggered off the back of this redevelopment and indirect benefits will be numerous for the local supply chain and local area."
