What type of technology will be used?
The Project will use, where appropriate, new technology known as trenchless or ‘No – Dig’, which is less intrusive to the community than alternative methods. With ‘No – Dig’ technology there is less cause for long lengths of trench and deep excavation thus leading to less disruption. Northern Ireland Water is committed to using this latest technology to achieve the improvements to its services while simultaneously minimising impact on the community from the associated construction works. The Belfast Sewers Project is being undertaken in accordance with best available construction practices.
