28-05-08
SDLP
North Belfast MLA Alban Maginness has welcomed today’s announcement
by ASDA to create 150 new jobs at a new store at the Loughshore
Playing Fields on the Shore Road. Mr Maginness stated:
“Today’s
announcement is welcome and will form part of a much larger mixed
use residential and commercial development on the site. I hope
that the jobs created will be focussed on, and to the benefit
of, the local community in North Belfast.
This
development will provide many benefits for the local community
including children’s play areas and a multi purpose community
building. I hope that this will help anchor the new development
as a part of the community and from a significant part of the
redevelopment of the Shore Road.
This
area has been neglected for some time and projects such as this
which include and enhance the local community, alongside government
initiatives, can help address that neglect.”
