Veolia Water Ireland and BAM Civil Ltd have been appointed by Irish Water to develop new sewerage schemes in Killybegs, Bundoran, Glencolumbkille and Convoy.
Initially the focus will be on Bundoran and Killybegs, and works have now commenced in both locations including upgrading the access road to the Bundoran Waste Water Treatment Plant and work on the new Killybegs Waste Water Treatment Plant site and access road. Work will also be commencing shortly at the main Bundoran Pumping Station and are expected to last for 26 weeks. During the works a section of the public car park, and the green area along the foreshore adjacent to the Bradogue River, will be cordoned off to facilitate construction.

Eunan Canavan, Irish Water's Capital Delivery Regional Lead North West said: "Killybegs and Bundoran are two of 44 towns in Ireland where untreated sewage is being discharged directly into the sea. Irish Water will ensure that wastewater treatment in the four towns is compliant with required EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive standards while also allowing for future economic growth in the towns."
