Summary
Galway County Council has approved a colossal new Applegreen service station near Ballinasloe — one of the biggest in west Ireland — complete with a 36-bay EV charger, dedicated HGV spots, a 1,000-square-metre facility, food outlets, outdoor seating, a kids’ play area, picnic zones, gas pumps, 83 car spaces, and even a car wash and solar panels. It’s set to transform Ballinasloe into a major M6 commercial hub, with 15 conditions attached. Meanwhile, a McDonald’s proposal is still under review, sparking debate over jobs versus local businesses — signaling Ballinasloe’s surge in investment.
