The planning application
for Buncrana, which will be submitted shortly, will
include provision of storm water storage at the
Westbrook Pumping Station and an upgrade to parts of the
sewer network to increase its capacity.
Works will take place at the following locations:
• Cahir O‘Doherty Avenue
• Aileach Road
• Railway Road
• Cockhill Road
• Westbrook Pumping Station
Speaking about the planning proposal Eunan Canavan, from
Irish Water, said: “Buncrana will benefit hugely from
these wastewater scheme improvements. Sewer flooding
during heavy rainfall will be significantly reduced,
which will improve water quality in the receiving
environment. The upgrades will increase capacity of the
current sewer networks and will allow for population
growth and development in Buncrana and its surrounding
areas.” |
