Amharc ar fhreagraAs indicated in my reply to the Deputy's Question on 18th September 2014, a Feasibility Study to examine the options to address the flooding problem at the location referred to is being undertaken by the Office of Public Works.
The OPW is continuing to collect flow data for input to the Study. It has also carried out a hydrological assessment of the catchment and is building a computational model to assess the feasibility of the proposed solution. It is hoped that the Study will be completed this Summer.
