OHMG Secures Contracts for 167 New Homes Under Louth County Council’s Accelerated Delivery Programme

OHMG Ltd is pleased to announce the signing of contracts with Louth County Council for two significant social housing projects under the Accelerated Delivery Programme. These projects will see the construction of 167 high-quality homes across the county over the next 20 months, further strengthening our commitment to delivering sustainable communities through innovative and efficient construction methods.

Following a competitive tender process, OHMG has been appointed to Louth County Council’s Regional Design and Build Framework, reinforcing our position as a trusted partner in the delivery of essential housing infrastructure. The developments include:

Bakery View, Ballymakenny Road, Drogheda – 97 units
Ravel Drive, Dunleer – 70 units

Both schemes will utilise accelerated delivery routes and modern construction technologies, ensuring high-quality, energy-efficient homes that meet the needs of residents while aligning with the objectives of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage’s Accelerated Delivery Programme.

Construction is already underway on both sites, which will provide a mix of two, three, and four bedroom two-storey houses and bungalows.

These projects build on our strong relationship with Louth County Council, where we are also currently delivering Fulacht Fia at Mount Avenue, a 93-unit development in Dundalk.

OHMG remains committed to delivering exceptional housing solutions and looks forward to completing these developments, providing much-needed homes for local communities.

Supporting Future Industry Leaders

OHMG recently participated in the Construction Careers Fair at Ulster University Belfast campus, connecting with students, graduates, and aspiring professionals eager to explore career paths in construction. Our team engaged with attendees to discuss employment and placement opportunities across various departments within OHMG.

We were especially pleased to offer insights to Masters students and prospective Higher-Level Apprentices (HLA’s), sharing valuable advice about the transition from education to industry. Our team highlighted the versatility of construction-related degrees, showing students the range of roles their qualifications could open up within the sector.

In addition to providing an overview of our graduate employment and placement opportunities, we offered practical tips on creating an attractive CV that stands out to employers.

Our participation at the fair reflects OHMG’s ongoing commitment to fostering the next generation of construction professionals and supporting the career development of students across Northern Ireland. We look forward to seeing many of these talented individuals thrive in their chosen paths.

Handover of Newforge Sports Complex & Event Hub

We are delighted to announce the completion and handover of the Newforge Sports Complex & Event Hub, a landmark project heralding a new era of community development and cross-community engagement in South Belfast. As the main contractor, OHMG worked diligently to bring this £6m vision to fruition, creating a state-of-the-art facility on a 16-hectare site that previously served as a police sports centre.

This ambitious project, spearheaded by the Newforge Community Development Trust, aims to transform a once-restricted area into a vibrant community hub that promotes peace and reconciliation throughout Northern Ireland and the cross-border region.

The completion of the Newforge Sports Complex & Event Hub not only provides a premier sports and events facility but also establishes a crucial space for fostering relationships and understanding among different community groups. OHMG Ltd is honoured to have been part of this transformative project and looks forward to witnessing the positive impact it will have on the community for years to come.

The 5,286 sqm facility features a shared reception, a large sports hall, fitness suites, treatment and changing rooms, multi-purpose spaces, a refreshment area, office and conference rooms, ample parking, and beautifully landscaped areas.

One of the standout objectives of this project was the achievement of Disability Sport NI’s Inclusive Sports Facility Excellence mark, ensuring that the complex is accessible and welcoming to all.

Newforge has already hosted some memorable sporting events and is now the home to Belfast Star Basketball Club, one of the leading and most successful basketball clubs in Ireland. Enjoy!
