NI Water has completed a new £2 million water pipeline – the Carland to Cookstown Water Trunk Main in County Tyrone, which will improve the local water supply infrastructure, as well as the security of the water supply in Cookstown and the surrounding areas.
The project, which got underway in Autumn 2015 involved the construction of 11km of water pipeline from Carland Service Reservoir to Cookstown. The main route was along the busy A29 Dungannon to Cookstown Road.
Infrastructure Minister Chris Hazzard welcomed the completion of the pipeline:
“The completion of this £2million investment is good news for customers in Cookstown and the surrounding areas by improving the local water supply infrastructure and security of supply. The contract also provided a welcome boost to the local construction sector.”
Councillor Trevor Wilson, Chair of Mid-Ulster Council said the pipeline will be particularly important during future winter periods and other emergency situations when infrastructure may be particularly vulnerable.
Dawson WAM was the contractor for the scheme, with McAdam Design providing design and technical support.
