NI Water is pleased to announce that a major £11 million Water Improvement Scheme, which will be essential to the future resilience of the water supply infrastructure for customers in the South Down area is progressing well.
The next phase of the works to upgrade the water mains infrastructure will involve pipelaying along Main Street, Hilltown and is scheduled to commence in April 2025, with the completion of the Main Street works in June 2025. Following this, work will progress along the Newry Road.
As part of the preparations for this next phase of the scheme, we would like to invite the public to a ‘drop in’ information event, to find out more details on the next phase of the project.
Date: Thursday 20th February 2025
Location: Hilltown Community Centre, Carcullion House, Rostrevor Road, BT34 5TU
Time: 4pm - 6:30pm (the public are welcome to drop in at any stage between 4pm & 6.30pm)
The project team would like to take this opportunity to provide the public with more detailed information and timescales for this significant project within the Hilltown area. Members of the project team will be available at any stage between 4pm and 6:30pm to discuss the scheme in further detail and address any concerns.
NI Water and our contractor Farrans Glanua JV appreciate that work of this nature can be disruptive and would like to thank the public for their continued patience and cooperation as this essential water improvement scheme progresses. Signage and traffic management will be in place throughout the scheme.
