Lagan Construction Group awarded £25m NIW Contract

10 Apr 2017

Lagan Construction Group has been awarded a major new water improvement contract by NI Water. The £100 million contract will be undertaken alongside three other local companies: BSG Civil Engineering, Farrans Construction, and meridian Utilities. The project will focus on improving the watermains infrastructure throughout Northern Ireland over the next four years, improving the reliability and security of the water supply as well as improving water quality.

As NI Water marks a decade of delivery this month, investing £1.8 billion in water and wastewater services over the past ten years, this programme of work will deliver what matters for their customers by improving the water supply network. The project will also assist in supporting a growing economy by boosting employment in the four companies, as well as local sub-contractors.

“This is one of NI Water’s largest contracts, which will deliver major improvements to the watermains infrastructure throughout Northern Ireland. We are confident that the contract will provide excellent value for money for NI Water, while meeting our own ambitious targets of upgrading approximately 150km of watermains per year. The scheme will bring many benefits by improving water quality and security of the water supply, as well as the environmental benefits such as reducing leakage. We at NI Water look forward to working successfully with our four partners to deliver a sustainable, robust and reliable water supply network for the future and will continue to deliver an excellent service for our customers.”
