The construction of this
major new sewerage scheme will see the breaking of ground at Buncrana in the coming weeks. The works planned includes
the provision of stormwater storage at the Buncrana
Wastewater Treatment Plant and at the Westbrook Pumping
Station, which will reduce the risk of overflows during
storms.
Approximately 3 km of sewer network in Buncrana will
also be upgraded to increase its capacity allowing for
current and future population growth of the town. The
works will also include upgrades to the existing pumping
stations at Westbrook, Derry Road, Ludden, Earlsfort and
The Pier, as well as decommissioning two existing storm
overflows.
Residents and visitors to Buncrana will see works taking
place along Marian Park, Cahir O’Doherty Avenue, Aileach
Road, Railway Road, Cockhill Road and Castle Avenue. |
