Wishing Peter Shovlin a Very Happy Retirement After a Quarter Century at Townlink

It is the end of an era here at Townlink Construction as we wish a very happy retirement to our colleague and friend, Peter Shovlin.

Peter is stepping back after an incredible 25 years with us. A quarter of a century is a massive milestone in any industry, and it is hard to overstate just how much of an impact he has had on the team and the business over the years.

He has been a constant presence, always great fun and someone you could also rely on.

We are already looking forward to regular visits and updates on his new non-construction projects.

Wishing you health, happiness, and all the very best in your retirement, Peter. Enjoy the downtime; you have certainly earned it!

Project Update: National Orthopaedic Hospital Cappagh

The team at Townlink Construction is delighted to share a major visual milestone on site this week. The scaffolding is officially coming down, revealing the impressive exterior of the new Radiology Unit Extension.

Seeing the structure uncovered is a fantastic moment that highlights the hard work, precision, and dedication of everyone involved. Delivering a state-of-the-art healthcare facility within a live campus environment requires meticulous planning, and we are incredibly proud of our site team for managing this with zero disruption to the daily operations of a sensitive orthopaedic hospital.

A sincere thank you to our excellent design partners Peter Oakes,
MMP – Mulcahy McDonagh & Partners, Johnston Reid & Associates, Molony Millar, client representatives National Orthopaedic Hospital Cappagh, and our extensive network of over 70 specialist subcontractors for their ongoing collaboration, professional approach, and seamless coordination.

We are now moving into the final stages of the project and look forward to handing over a facility that will significantly enhance patient care and services.

Progress, Planning, and People: Highlights from Townlink Construction’s Team Evening

A highly productive evening spent with the team at Townlink Construction. Taking the time to step away from our active sites to review our ongoing programme of works and celebrate recent team successes is vital for our continued growth.
We had an excellent session aligning our strategic objectives for the upcoming quarter and reflecting on our live projects—including the fantastic progress being made at our CHQ Foodhall site in Dublin city centre.
Delivering exceptional results, right from the initial First-in-Place quality benchmarks through to final project handover, requires strong collaboration and a unified team.
A sincere thank you to all our staff for their continued hard work, insight, and commitment.
