Fermanagh and Omagh District Council has appointed FP McCann Ltd to complete environmental improvement works at Foundry Lane in Omagh.

Works will begin on 8 January and are anticipated to last three months. The improvement works will commence at the High Street side in short sections with pedestrians accessing Foundry Lane from Kevlin Avenue (carpark end) only.

The scheme is funded by the Department for Communities (DfC) and will include improvements to the footways, lighting, drainage and street furniture. The works will improve the appearance of the area and make it more accessible for pedestrians.
