Start date for Kildare housing project confirmed

By Ciarán Mather, Leinster Leader

The start date for one ambitious County Kildare housing project has been confirmed by Kildare County Council (KCC).

The information was revealed at the latest Athy Municipal District meeting, which took place on Monday, September 21 last, in response to a question from a local councillor.

Labour Party Cllr Aoife Breslin sought the information via the submission of a question to KCC — she asked to provide an update ‘on when the construction of housing units by Clúid Housing will commence at Green Alley in Athy’.

KCC replied by telling Cllr Breslin: “The contractor has confirmed that this project will commence on-site mid-September 2026.”

Clúid Housing aims to provide affordable social and cost-rental housing for those on low incomes, as well as older adults and people with special needs.
