Applegreen begins work on €10 million motorway service area in County Kildare

By Eve

Construction has started on a €10 million Applegreen motorway service station on a previously derelict site in County Kildare, Ireland. The project, documented with on-site photographs, marks the redevelopment of unused land into a commercial fuel and retail facility. Kildare Now reported the development as work commenced on the ground.

Why it matters: Motorway service areas typically include EV charging infrastructure as part of modern builds, making this a potential procurement opportunity for charge point operators and equipment suppliers targeting high footfall forecourt locations in Ireland.
