The Office of Public Works (OPW) is currently populating the advance office in Co. Mayo with some 30 posts.

OPW has acquired the site for permanent offices in Co. Mayo and it is expected that this building will be ready for occupation in 2009.

The permanent building will be procured on a design build basis. OPW are currently assessing the expressions of interest received and it is expected that tenders will be invited shortly. Following assessment of the tenders, a preferred bidder will then be nominated who will then proceed with the planning application.
