Main Towns 3.3 Midleton Mainistir na Corann meaning ‘The Abbey of the Coir’ Vision and Strategic Context 3.3.1 The vision for Midleton is to build on the success of its rail connections to Metropolitan Cork and promote the continued development of the town and its hinterland as a residential, employment, tourist and service location. Key aims in delivering this vision include: • strengthen the economy of the town, attracting new investment in employment, services, retail and tourism uses. • Strengthen the role of the area around the Main Street as the town core, as the primary retail area and the centre of the community. • Secure investment in essential infrastructure including water services and national road improvements. • Promote the continued use of all forms of public transport within and around Midleton and improve opportunities for walking and cycling around the town. Local Context 3.3.2 Midleton is the largest town in East Cork and is an important Metropolitan Town along the East Cork Rail Corridor which benefits from an established high quality public transport service. It is located within the ‘Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy’ study area for which a co-ordinated land use and transport strategy for the Cork Metropolitan Area applies which includes progressing the sustainable development of new areas for housing, especially those on public transport corridors and urban expansion areas on the rail corridor. 3.3.3 The planning strategy for Midleton therefore seeks to achieve significant future growth in population, employment and services, supported by high levels of community facilities, amenities and integrated public transport connections. Midleton has a strong industrial base and specialist roles in the food and beverage sector. The town also has a number of tourism assets. 3.3.4 In recent years, whilst retaining its self-sufficient market town character, Midleton has become a popular residential location for commuters working in or near Cork City. The town benefits from a 30-minute peak hour rail service to Cork City with a journey time of 23 minutes. The town offers a strong supply of land for housing, employment and other uses and in this context significant growth is planned in the area in line with the Core Strategy set out in Volume One of this plan. 3.3.5 The town has a north-south orientation, with key transport infrastructure at each end; the rail line to the north and the N25 dual carriageway to the south. The lands to the north of the rail line rise steeply in two hills at Water-Rock and Broomfield, with the Owenacurra river valley in between. The lands to the south of the town are low lying leading to the river estuary. 3.3.6 Outside the development boundary of the town, the land forms part of the Metropolitan Cork Green Belt, where the objectives of this Plan seek to preserve the character of the area and (subject to certain exceptions) reserve the land generally for agriculture, open-space or recreation uses. 3.3.7 The Midleton and Carrigtwohill Transportation Study has had significant implications, direct and indirect on all lands contained within the development boundary of the town. Implementation of a number of the recommendations of this study have been key to facilitating the development of the town as a sustainable location for business and living, linking the outer areas with the town centre as well as facilitating the establishment of a pedestrian and cycle network. The ‘Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy’ study which sets out a co-ordinated land use and transport strategy for Metropolitan Cork includes the implementation of sustainable transport measures (walking, cycling and public transport), connecting with and within Midleton. 3.3.8 The Water-Rock Framework Masterplan study was completed in August 2015 and set out a number of land use proposals for the development of the Water-Rock Urban Expansion Area. Since then the Council has been advancing plans to secure the development of the infrastructure needed to enable the development of the area (obtaining statutory consents and securing funding for new infrastructure, developing a new financial contribution scheme for the area etc.) and has been in active negotiations with landowners to ensure the delivery of housing in the area in the short / medium term. The findings and recommendations of the 2015 report were reflected in the 2017 East Cork Local Area Plan and have been carried forward into this plan. 200
Population and Housing 3.3.9 The planning strategy for Midleton as set out in the Core Strategy in Volume One of this plan, provides for the population of the town to grow to 21,108 persons up to 2028. This represents a growth of 8,612 persons on the Census 2016 population of 12,496. In order to accommodate this level of population growth, an additional 3,355 units need to be provided in Midleton up to 2028 with 3,055 housing units delivered on residentially zoned land and the balance of 300 units delivered within the built footprint of the town. National policy sets out a requirement that 30% of new residential growth should be within the existing built up area of towns as infill or brownfield development. Due to the significant growth target for Midleton town, and the already developed nature of its existing built footprint, a target of 9% has been applied for Midleton. Table 4.3.3 Midleton Population 2006-2028 Name Census 2006 Census 2011 Census 2016 Proposed Increase to 2028 Midleton 10,048 12,001 12,496 8,612 3.3.10 This Plan makes provision for a residential land supply of approximately 136 ha with the capacity to provide approximately 3,055 units up to 2028 and an additional 1,229 units up to 2031. 3.3.11 In acknowledging that the Urban Expansion Area at Water-Rock will not be fully delivered during this development plan cycle, the Council has included land use proposals for these sites in their entirety in order to continue to give guidance and confidence to all key stakeholders who have been involved to date, and also to leverage maximum return from the state funding secured to date for the development of this site. The Core Strategy figures for Midleton set out in this plan seek to provide clarity and certainty to ensure that the remaining portion of the Water-Rock UEA will be delivered post 2028. Table 4.3.4 below aims to show the overall scale of development proposed for this plan cycle up to 2028 and those units that will be provided during the next plan cycle, while keeping within the growth targets as set out by the NPF and RSES for the Southern Region. 3.3.12 In summary therefore, in Midleton this Plan looks beyond its current 2028 headline year as regards the contribution which the Urban Expansion Area can make to the delivery of the targets to 2031, by including proposals for the development of these lands in this Plan. The next County Development Plan will run from 2028- 2034 and will provide for growth beyond the 2031 targets. Table 4.3.4 Population and Housing in Midleton Housing Requirement Housing Supply Census 2016 Population Target (to 2028) Net New Units Required (to 2028) Units within built footprint Units on Zoned Sites (to 2028) Additional units (to 2031) Total Units (to 2031) Est. Net Residential area zoned (ha) Midleton 12,496 21,108 3,355 300 3,055 1,229 4,584 136 Residential 3.3.13 The most significant area of future growth in Midleton is to be in the form of a new residential neighbourhood located to the north of the rail line at Water-Rock. This site was chosen to form the basis of a major urban expansion of the town of Midleton because of its proximity to the Cork – Midleton rail line and has been a feature of statutory plans for the area since 2005 and has been carried forward in this Plan. 3.3.14 It is also important to ensure that future residential development on other sites in the town allow for permeability between housing areas and in particular, direct, safe and convenient access to the existing and proposed railway station by pedestrians and cyclists. Land that has already been developed has been included as part of the ‘existing residential and other uses’ zoning in the plan. 3.3.15 The 9% target for units to be delivered in the existing built-up footprint will be accommodated through infill or brownfield development which will mostly occur within the significant areas of town centre zoning and in particular within the areas identified for regeneration therein. This may be in the form of above ground floor residential development with other 201
