O'Brien Builders & Civil Engineering Contractors has landed a contract with Clare County Council to upgrade and extend the public toilets in Lahinch.

The project will involve the delivery of female, male and disabled access toilets, baby/parent room, storage room and a disability access ramp.

Mayor of Clare, Councillor Michael Begley said: "The existing public amenity facilities provided at Lahinch Seaworld are no longer fit for purpose and need to be upgraded in order to provide modern sustainable and accessible facilities that can cater for additional capacity using an improved layout at this busy seaside resort along the Wild Atlantic Way."

Carmel Kirby, Director of Physical Development, added: "The commencement of construction work on the public toilets in Lahinch follows the recent delivery of a newly refurbished and extended toilet block and the upgrade of the lifeguard station at Spanish Point. Clare County Council is also planning improvements to the public facilities in Kilkee."

The toilet facilities are scheduled open in May 2019.
