Contractor Quinn Automatic is continuing to work on the development of a new storm sewer in Dungannon, Co Tyrone.

NI Water appointed the firm for the project which is taking place on Sloan Street, which is currently closed.

Pipelaying will commence on George Street on Monday, 13 February, where a road closure will be in place for approximately two weeks.

There will be some parking restrictions in the vicinity of the works. Vehicular access will be maintained for residents where possible and pedestrian access will be maintained at all times.

Grahame Millar Project Sponsor commented: "NI Water is pleased to install this new storm sewer to facilitate the construction of 26 new property units and the increased number of local residents is expected to improve shopper footfall to local businesses in the area.

"The removal of storm water from the existing combined sewer will also increase the capacity of the existing sewers as well as reducing the likelihood for out-of-sewer flooding and environmental pollution."
