Turnapin Wastewater Network Upgrade

Uisce Éireann has completed upgrades to the wastewater network at Turnapin to support future growth and development in the Santry area.

The works involved the installation of over 400m of new sewer pipe as part of a project to improve the capacity and operational performance of the existing sewers in the area.

The section of works took place at Turnapin Grove and Turnapin Lane, Dublin 17.

This project was delivered to support existing and future developments within the community. It will improve the capacity of the existing wastewater network in the area, reducing demands on the current network.

The works were carried out on behalf of Uisce Éireann by GMC Utilities Group Ltd. and were completed in December 2024.

• Supporting social and economic development – This project will facilitate social and economic growth, including planned residential development.
• Improving the wastewater infrastructure to facilitate future demand – This project will upgrade the wastewater network, alleviating pressures on the network and increasing the capacity to deliver reliable, sustainable high-quality wastewater services.
• Improving operational performance – This project will improve the capacity of the existing sewers, improving performance and reducing the risk of sewer overflows during heavy rainfall events.

Uisce Éireann's Growth and Development Programme is a national programme of targeted investment to increase the capacity of water and wastewater infrastructure to enable social and economic growth and development, including the delivery of essential housing.
