Galway City Western Environs Water Supply Scheme Tonabrocky Reservoir
MEIC were appointed as Project Supervisor for the Construction Stage for the Galway City Western Environs Water Supply Scheme Tonabrocky Reservoir.
This project involved the construction of a new in-situ concrete reservoir, construction of access road and pull in area, construction of scour outlet pipe and headwall, filling around reservoir and construction of all interconnecting pipework on site.
The Galway City Western Environs Water Supply Scheme serves areas to the west of Galway City including the Knocnacarragh area of Galway City, and the Barna and Moycullen areas of Galway County, together with a large rural hinterland. The scheme receives its water from the Terryland Water Treatment Works via pumping to Clifton Hill Reservoir and further pumping from Clifton Hill to Tonabrocky Reservoir via a 300mm diameter rising main.
The scheme has been the subject of water supply restrictions in recent years and the provision of additional storage capacity at Tonabrocky is required.? This is being constructed by MEIC Ltd.
