Upgrade works to the Moate Water Supply in Co Westmeath have been completed.

Irish Water invested €60,000 in the project which has increased the water pressure and improved the security of the water supply for residents and businesses in Moate.

The scheme involved construction of a booster pump station at Mount Temple Road, Moate, and the decommissioning of the Ballinderry Water Treatment Plant. The water supply for customers in Moate Town will now be served from the Mullingar Low Level Reservoir which is treated at the Portloman Water Treatment Plant in Mullingar.
