Lidl Returns to Waterford With New Plans

Lidl is back with a new bid to open in Waterford’s Gracedieu, this time on Carrickphierish Road — a spot they tried before but got rejected in 2025. Their updated plan includes a one-story discount food store with an off-license, plus new road and pedestrian access to make it easier to reach. The council’s past concerns still loom, but this time they’re also adding car and bike parking. With a fresh submission just filed, the community’s reaction will be key — and history suggests this won’t be smooth sailing. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
