NI Water Announces Information Event

NI Water has announced details of an information event regarding a capital works project for a new storm sewer for the Olympia Leisure Centre & Windsor Park developments.

Work is due to commence in mid-September and involve the laying of a new storm sewer within the Olympia Drive and Donegall Avenue area. The project will also include upgrading the existing 1930s combined sewerage system, removing significant volumes of storm water from the sewer. In turn, this will reduce the risk of out-of-sewer flooding and provide environmental benefits.

Ahead of work commencing, NI Water is hosting a public information event, where the project team will be available to discuss the proposals.

It will be held at Olympia Community Centre, Boucher Road, Belfast on Wednesday 7 September from 4pm to 7pm.
