Consulting firms Byrne Looby / Arcadis signed a deal to design a flood relief scheme for Ballybofey & Stranorlar, Buncrana and Ramelton.
The project is currently in Stage 1 'Scheme Analysis and Development'. This involves data collection/ surveys, detailed river modelling, and early community engagement to inform the design and identify the preferred Scheme. The aim is to ensure that design is based on the most up to date information and analysis, and that stakeholder and public input regarding flooding, design and environmental constraints are considered as early as possible in the process.
