Works are progressing well on our Glashaboy Flood Relief Scheme, with 70% of works completed to date. The team have been busy at Hazelwood Junction where the installation of new footpaths, new road surfacing and new public lighting works are almost complete. A critical flood overflow culvert is currently being installed adjacent to the busy shopping centre which will be a major relief to the residents and businesses in the event of future rain events.
At New Line Road, construction of reinforced concrete walls is on-going, both upstream and downstream of the New Line Bridge. Completion of these RC flood walls is expected in the next few weeks. This will be followed by the construction of a new road layout in that area.
Well done to the Sorensen site team on this project, they have all worked tirelessly to progress this challenging project in a safe and efficient manner. The Sorensen team wish to extend our gratitude to the local communities of Glanmire & Riverstown for their ongoing patience and cooperation as we continue to progress these vital flood relief works throughout their communities.
