£2.7m Water Mains Improvement Programme for Dungannon Area

15 April 2013 14:59

NI Water is about to commence a process of improving and upgrading the water supply infrastructure in the Greater Dungannon area. Once complete, this project will be good news for the local area as the upgraded water mains will improve the reliability and security of the local water supply, drinking water quality and will also help reduce leakage.

This essential Water Mains Improvement Programme is scheduled to commence at the end of April and will last for approximately 12 months.

The majority of the work will take place in the Greater Dungannon area, including Donaghmore, Loughgall, Eglish and Castlecaulfield. NI Water, in co-operation with DRD Roads Service will do everything possible to keep any disruption to a minimum.

The majority of the work will be completed using environmentally-friendly trenchless technology, which means that most of the work will be completed without the need to open large trenches in the area, which will also help to minimise disruption.

NI Water and our contractor Farrans Construction will carry out letter drops in affected areas to advise residents of this work. We would like to thank the residents and road users in advance for their co-operation and patience during this essential improvement work. There will be some disruption and delays at peak times while this work takes place, but we would like to assure customers that every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum.
