Scottish Water is about to start work on a £1.2 million scheme to improve its waste water infrastructure and tackle a flooding issue at two properties in the The Ness area of Dollar.
The improvement work, which is due to start on about April 13, will help address the issue of internal flooding which has affected the properties and enable Scottish Water to remove them from the register of properties at risk of flooding. The properties have suffered internal flooding from the public foul and combined sewers due to overloading of the system.
