 The Carlow site is set to open in March while the one in Cork will be completed in autumn of this year.

The construction costs €16 million with Topaz investing €14 million and McDonald's with €2 million.

"Today’s announcement is a key milestone in the continued expansion of our retail network and we have no doubt it will be a tremendous benefit and service to commuters, tourists, locals, and passers-by,” said Niall Anderton MD of Topaz.

"At McDonald’s we are delighted to be bringing our world-class food offering to drivers along Ireland’s busy motorway network," said Nigel McGuire, Director of Property and Supply Chain, McDonald’s.
