Irish Water is to present its plans to build a new main in Howth, County Dublin, at an upcoming information evening.
The utility aims to construct a new 6km water main from the Bayside to the existing Howth Reservoir (Drumgriffen) which will benefit homes and businesses in the area. Works will include the upgrade of Corr Bridge pumping station, a new pumping station at Howth Reservoir and an additional disinfection facility at the reservoir.
The information event is set to take place on Tuesday 30 April from 5.30-7.30pm at Baldoyle Library, ahead of the start of construction on 13 May.
This project is being delivered alongside similar projects in Malahide and Balbriggan, representing an investment of almost €22 million to safeguard the water supply in these communities.
The following locations will be impacted by the works; Howth Road; Moyclare Road; Burrows Road; Claremount Road; Balkill Road; Baldoyle Road; Station Road; Seagrange Park; Lauder Lane and Tramway Walking Trail. Residents in these areas will be notified in advance of any works.
