South Main Street Wexford?

Decoda

I heard today that the contractors (the same contractors that have done previous sections of the Main Street) are planning to mobilise for next Monday morning. Lets hope that they make a start soon or it won't be worth while starting before the opera festival begins.:rolleyes:

Who are the contractors?

Fresh spray-painted indicators of utility accesses and other stuff appeared on the street this week so it can't be long now.

was on south main street this morning.... no sign of workers moving in yet.

also forgot to mention that the scaffolding around simons place has finally been taken away!! about time... so this street has to be on its way now shortly..

also i see the old woolshop has a new entrance carved out beside megamix... does this mean bobby o neill is going to have a nightclub in there as previously planned???


also the south main street has been marked out but the little patch in the middle from simons place down to uncle sams hasnt been.,.. i know there was problems wiht foundations of buildings there etc and they thought they may not be able to do paving there in that one section as they were afraid buildings would collapse...

anybody any more info ?

I think that's the fire escape for the new S51 smoking area/function room.

The new part of South 5 is already open. My mates played a gig in there two weekends ago. I don't personally like how they have two separate entrances now though which is not something I deem optimal. It's ok if they were right beside each other, but instead, S51's entrances are sandwiching a few other shops, thus breaking continuity.

Simon's place is looking fantastic.

There are cones on either side of the road stopping people parking at the end of South Main Street. Looks like work may proceed shortly.

As did mine the weekend before.... and I thought that new door was the fire escape? When we went to the Sunday night gig we entered via the front door, through the pub, left and left again. There was no other way in.

i seen alot of cones around the very south end of the main street this morning down by flanagans and michael kelly's pub. wasnt able to check up around uncle sams area.

they have started digging just outside Flanagans casino now anyway. So they are probably working their way up towards town.

That work thats going on outside Coleman Doyles dosent look like resurfacing/paving to me..

WexfordWarrior

they are digging and laying cable and stuff for the esb on the main street at the moment.. one of the workers told me the paving wont be starting until after christmas. but this work is necessary for the paving...so its all part of it.
