Five year extension sought for completion of Tullamore private hospitalThe developers of a private hospital on the Wellwood campus in Tullamore are seeking to extend the timescale for the completion of the development by another five years, to December 2031. Supporting information which was prepared and submitted on behalf of John Flanagan Developments Ltd., by a Scottish-based agency, Scott Hobbs Planning (SHP), sets out the reason for seeking a timeline extension for completion of the project. No other changes are proposed to the development which already has planning permission. “There is necessity for one pump station only” they state, adding that it would be “unsustainable” to require the construction of both stations. John Flanagan Developments Ltd., was granted planning permission for a new 99-bed private hospital on a site known as the Wellwood Campus at the Arden Roundabout off the N52 bypass on the outskirts of Tullamore in February 2023.
