Construction on essential wastewater project in Clonburris thriving as it reaches 50% completion
Uisce Éireann, in partnership with South Dublin County Council, is pleased to announce that the construction of essential wastewater infrastructure in Clonburris is progressing well. This project is part of Uisce Éireann's commitment to meeting current and future demands while supporting social and economic development in the area. The project represents a significant investment in improving the wastewater infrastructure in Dublin.
The project, which commenced on site in January 2023, is progressing well with the majority of the wastewater pipeline already installed, and construction works on the new pump station progressing to schedule. The new infrastructure will provide the required wastewater capacity to meet current and future demand. It will also enable social and economic growth and development in Clonburris and surrounding areas.

The project, which is due for completion in 2024, is being carried out by GMC Utilities on behalf of Uisce Éireann.
