Patrick Fleming, Director and Paul Tohill, Associate, of Cleaver Fulton Rankin's leading Construction & Procurement team have been advising Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council on all aspects of the procurement, construction and commercial contracts for the redevelopment, and have been working alongside our Real Estate and Planning & Environmental teams who have also been advising the Council.
The redevelopment plans have now been approved, and will see Dundonald International Ice Bowl partially demolished to make way for a new Olympic size ice rink, ten pin bowling facility, and children's soft play area, as well as a primary healthcare facility including a pharmacy and GP surgery. In addition, there will also be a new gymnasium, office space, food outlets and general support accommodation. During this redevelopment, it is anticipated that the Ice Bowl will remain in operation to the public. With the existing Ice Bowl having opened in 1986, the revamp will be of significance importance to both the local and wider community in Northern Ireland.
