Declan Cawley from Irish
Water explains the need for water mains upgrade works in
Castlenacor, Buncrana. |
Outlining the benefits of
these works Declan Cawley, Irish Water, explained:
“These essential works will benefit customers by
replacing ageing water mains with new and improved
modern pipes. The new water mains will reduce the high
level of leakage in the area and will increase security
of supply and reliability.
“The works may involve some short-term water
interruptions and the project team will ensure that
customers are given a minimum of 48 hours’ notice prior
to any planned water interruptions. We understand that
this type of work can be inconvenient and works crews
will make every effort to minimise any disruption these
necessary works cause.
The works are scheduled to commence in early February
2022. Farrans Construction are contracted to carry out
the work on behalf of Irish Water which are due for
completion in April.
Customers can phone Irish Water on 1800 278 278 if they
have any questions about the project or check out the
Water Supply Updates section of the Irish Water website
for regular updates. |
