BSG Enginerring have commenced work on a major programme to monitor Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs).

These are overflow points on NI Water's sewerage network, which operate during periods of heavy rain and are designed to prevent'‘out-of-sewer' and property flooding. NI Water is required under environmental regulation to monitor these overflows.

As part of the current programme of work, NI Water has identified that monitoring equipment is required at Market Street CSO. This will involve the installation of monitoring equipment within the CSO manhole on Market Street; laying underground ducts across Castle Street and erecting a small kiosk adjacent to The Central Bar on Castle Place (beside the existing kiosk).

In a bid to complete the road crossing as safely and as quickly as possible, the company will carry out excavation work across Castle Street at night between 7pm and 7am. This work is currently planned to get underway on Monday 17 May at 7pm and should be completed by Friday 21 May.
