Water Mains Improvements Underway In Co Wexford Townland

Construction News Image
Shareridge Engineering has commenced work to replace ageing watermains in the County Wexford townland of Ramstown.

The contractor will replace 580m of problematic watermains in Ramstown Lower, Gorey, improving the supply for the community.

Led by Irish Water and Wexford County Council, the project forms part of Irish Water's National Leakage Reduction Programme. The works also involve laying new water service connections from the public water main in the road to customers’ property boundaries and connecting it to the customers' water supply.

Works will take place on the Forth Road and are expected to be completed by the end of November.

Speaking about the works, Joe Carroll from Irish Water, said: "Replacing these old and problematic pipes in Ramstown Lower, that have a history of bursting, will reduce the drinking water lost by leakage and will bring an all-round improvement to water quality for the local community.

"To facilitate the safe delivery of the upgrades, there may be some traffic management in place, however, local and emergency access will be maintained at all times.

"Works will be limited to short sections to minimise any impact on customers. During this project there may be some short-term water outages and the project team will ensure that customers are given a minimum of 48 hours notice before any planned water outages.

"We understand that road works and water outages can be inconvenient, but our crews will make every effort to minimise disruption to local communities as we continue to improve the water supply in Wexford and progress the National Leakage Reduction Programme."
