As part of Northern Ireland Water’s study into the upgrade of the sewerage infrastructure in East Belfast, an essential programme of Sewer Investigation Work will get underway on the 18th February 2013 in the Mount Merrion area and will continue for approximately 3 weeks. This investigation work is essential to allow NI Water to progress with a major upgrade to the sewerage infrastructure in the area.
The current sewerage infrastructure is ageing and in poor condition and requires upgrading. This investigation work will allow us to investigate options to update the existing infrastructure, reduce the risk of out of sewer flooding, improve the quality of the water in the local watercourses and will ensure that the infrastructure in the area complies with Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) standards in the future.
As with all work of this nature, there may be an element of disruption as this work will involve testing ground conditions in the area. NI Water and our contractor Causeway Geotech Ltd would like to thank the public in advance for their patience and cooperation, and would like to assure customers that we will do everything possible to complete the work as quickly as possible with minimum disruption.
Customer queries regarding this work should be directed to Waterline on 08457 440088.
