“Enabling communities to thrive” as essential wastewater project in Clonburris is completed

Uisce Éireann, working in partnership with South Dublin County Council, is delighted to announce that the construction of essential wastewater infrastructure in Clonburris has been completed. 

The new pumping station and over 600m of new pipeline 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. 

Commenting on the completion of the important project, Padraic Fitzgerald, Project Manager with Uisce Éireann, said: "We are delighted to have completed this essential wastewater project for the community of Clonburris."

"Enabling communities to thrive is one of Uisce Éireann's key objectives, and Clonburris is another prime example of us playing our part to provide infrastructure for a brand-new part of Dublin that 23,000 people will eventually call home. The new underground pumping station and associated wastewater pipeline will support future growth and protect the environment, as well as facilitating development in the area for years to come."

The project, which commenced in early 2023, was carried out by GMC Utilities on behalf of Uisce Éireann. 

Uisce Éireann is committed to playing its part in the national drive to provide homes to people who need them by developing and prioritising the delivery of key wastewater service infrastructure.

Uisce Éireann is responsible for the delivery of all public water and wastewater services in Ireland. We are committed to continuously upgrading and developing critical infrastructure to support the growth needed in housing and across our economy, while protecting the environment and safeguarding water supplies.
