NI Water Invests £1.2m In Secure Future Supply Across Cushendall
NI Water has announced a £1.2 million investment to improve water services and secure the water supply for Cargan and wider Cushendall area as work on a major water improvement scheme gets underway.
The scheme involves replacing the existing Cushendall Water Pumping Station with a new Water Pumping Station outside Cargan Village, as well as the installation of a 2km pipeline from Cargan to Parkmore Service Reservoir.
This new Water Pumping Station will not only supply Parkmore, but also other Service Reservoirs in the Cargan/Cushendall area, improving the water supply for over 11,000 customers.
Work is scheduled to commence at the end of November 2021 and further notifications will be issued during the phasing of the works.
NI Water along with our contractor Glan Agua Farrans and project managers Capita have thanked the local community for their patience and cooperation as this essential project gets underway.
