Jobs Fly Into Seaplane Terminal
Limerick builders will soon be flying high with news that proposals to build a seaplane terminal at the local Clarion Hotel has been granted planning permission.
The city could soon be linked to Galway and the Aran Islands by a 30-minute seaplane journey after Limerick City Council gave the green light to Harbour Air Ireland to install floating pontoons, an access gangway, mooring anchors and other infrastructure for the berthing of a seaplane on the opening to the river Shannon in front of the Clarion Hotel.
It is part of a wider project to connect the Flying Boat Museum in Foynes to the Western Seaboard and when up and running in the next three months will also see the creation of five new jobs.
It is thought that with the pontoons and the walkway, this modest building contract represents €138,000 investment.
