Motorway goes Modern in Northern Ireland

The Modern Tyre Group has taken over seven depots previously owned and operated by Motorway Tyres in Northern Ireland .

Owned and operated by the Byrne family from its headquarters in Enniskillen, the Modern tyre Group has taken over depots in Antrim, Ballymena, Ballymoney, Dungannon, and Lurgan, as well as two outlets in Belfast at Duncrue Street and Onslow Parade.

The Modern Tyre Group services the private, fleet and wholesale markets with all leading brands of tyres, batteries, exhausts and alloy wheels through its network of 26 outlets throughout Northern Ireland. Speaking at the official takeover last Friday (March 28) Modern Tyres' general manager Charles Corscadden said: "Modern Tyres saw a fantastic opportunity to extend our province-wide network in areas where we had no presence.

With the takeover of Motorway we have modernised and upgraded the depots and fitted them with new state-of-the-art equipment, new Hi-Q signage as well as raising the standard of our customer facilities."
