NEW signs erected last week point the way towards things to come at Magheramorne.
The multi-million project to redevelop the massive, derelict quarry site has been described as one of the biggest regeneration schemes in Europe. However, since outline planning permission was granted by the then Environment Minister Sammy Wilson last June, it appeared - to the public at least - that nothing was happening.

Members of Islandmagee and District Conservation Society, who lobbied long and hard against the abandoned quarry being turned into a superdump, said people were getting anxious.

"We were being asked all the time: Why is nothing happening? What is going on?" explained society member Maureen Hanvey.

Find out more about how the development is progressing exclusively in this week's paper.
