The existing yard will be extended by 0.9 ha. These and all ancillary works including the regrading of an existing drainage ditch, all water infrastructure, internal roads, and landscaping are proposed on a site of 4.7 ha.

(a) The construction of new 2-storey extensions to the south-west (extension 1—proposed floor area of 81.9 m2) and north-east (extension 2—proposed floor area of 106.6 m2) ends of the existing 2-storey offices to the rear of the existing fabrication workshop to provide additional office and ancillary accommodation. (b) The construction of an internal pedestrian walkway link at first floor level (proposed floor area of 45.8 m2) within the existing fabrication workshop to connect the existing offices to the rear to the existing offices to the front that face the Newbridge South Orbital Relief Road (NSORR). (c) Modifications to the existing fabrication workshop & rear offices to include: • Replacement of all existing external windows & doors in the existing rear offices with new windows & doors. • Widening of some existing window openings in the existing rear offices to facilitate larger window openings. • Replacement of existing external wall finishes of the existing rear offices—forticrete blockwork at ground floor level and profiled metal cladding at first floor level—with new insulated cladding panels. • Amendments to the north-east elevation of the existing fabrication workshop to include new insulated cladding panels and new windows and doors. • Internal modifications to the existing rear offices and fabrication workshop to facilitate the proposed extension works and connection of the proposed internal pedestrian walkway link between the front and rear offices. (d) The provision of 5 additional car parking spaces to serve the proposed extension works. (e) The provision of 5 additional bicycle parking spaces to serve the proposed extension works.
