A “first class sporting facility” in Lisburn which features FIFA standard football pitches is set to get the go-ahead next week.
The Council and school shared Laurelhill Sports Zone has gone through an extensive public consultation and gained a recommendation by local authority officials, with councillors set to make a final decision on the plans on Monday (Oct 3).
The major development, next to Laurelhill Community College, will see the transformation of an existing shale playing field into a world class 3G sporting facility with soccer and training pitches including floodlighting and spectator areas.
