Diversions will be in place and can be viewed on the attached map.

Uisce Éireann’s Programme Manager, Colm Claffey thanked the community for their patience and co-operation in advance of the works.

“Uisce Éireann acknowledges that diversions can be inconvenient for the local community and our crews will make every effort to minimise disruption to the local people.

“We are confident that the short-term inconvenience will be outweighed by the long-term benefits upon completion of this sewerage scheme.

“It will not only reduce the risk of sewer flooding and address non-compliant sewer overflows into Lough Swilly and the River Finn, but it will support future social and economic growth in the area,” he concluded.
