The work, which has been completed, included removing tree roots from the network that were causing blockages and reducing the capacity of the sewers in the area.
The work also involved surveying and assessment of 870 metres of sewer network to establish where there were breaks in the network or where debris was blocking the sewers. Jetting and cleaning the sewers and manholes was also carried, tree roots were removed from 840 metres of the sewer network and from fifteen manholes, lining of the internal surface of the existing sewer pipes was undertaken to reinforce the pipes. Repairs were also carried out to internal sections of the existing sewer pipes where they had been damaged by the tree roots.

The work has ensured that the flow of wastewater in the sewer network is no longer interrupted by tree roots and the sewers are once again able to perform at full capacity.
