Work will take place to deliver an essential upgrade to the sewer network in Fosterstown.
Uisce Éireann and Fingal County Council are working to upscale a 450-metre section of the existing sewer network which is currently operating at full capacity. Once completed the additional capacity will facilitate future population growth for one of Ireland's largest towns.
Speaking about the upcoming works, Padraig Hanly, Regional Delivery Lead at Uisce Éireann, said: "Today's announcement signals an important development for the people of Swords and delivering this project for the community is an immense source of pride for Uisce Éireann and Fingal County Council. A sewer network that is fit for purpose is essential in order to support economic and social development in the community.

"We understand that the works may cause some disruption to commuters and local road users and our crews will make every effort to minimise the disruption and complete the project as quickly as possible. We thank the people of Swords for their patience as these works progress and know that the long-term benefits will far outweigh the short-term inconvenience."
The works will be carried out on behalf of Uisce Éireann by GMC Utilities Group Ltd and the project is due to be completed by the end of Q3 2023.
Traffic management in the form of a stop and go system will be in place on the Dublin Road for the duration of this section of works. As construction moves to works on the R132 a lane closure will be implemented.
