NI Water will commence work this month on an essential new watermain upgrade on the Creenagh Bridge Road, Coalisland, between the junctions of Bush Road and Ballynakilly Road, which will improve the resilience of the local water supply network and benefit customers in the surrounding area. The work is expected to commence on the 21st September and will continue for approximately 3 months.
The work will require a full road closure between Bush Road and Ballynakilly Road for the duration of the works with local access to residents provided. NI Water’s project team will do everything possible to reduce disruption as the scheme progresses and signage and traffic management will be in place.
The new watermain will ensure the continued security of the water supply for the residents in the Creenagh Bridge Road area and provide an essential new water connection for a nearby new housing development.
Anna Delargy, NI Water Project Manager, said: "This NI Water investment will install a new section of watermain, which will help improve the security of the water supply for our customers, as well as enhancing drinking water quality.
“This new watermain will reduce the number of bursts and provide a more robust water infrastructure in the area. The watermain will also provide an essential water connection for a new housing development, helping to accommodate growth in the area.
"NI Water and our project team from McAdam and GRAHAM thank the public for their patience and cooperation while this essential work is carried out to improve the water supply for residents and provide an essential water connection to these new homes."
