Funding Confirmed To Tackle Flood Risk

South Dublin County Council has confirmed the allocation of funding to tackle flood risk in the lower estates particularly those estates off the Ballycullen Road, whose homes were damaged or nearly destroyed as a result of the heavy rainfalls in October 2011. Sourcing the funding was helped by my colleague former Minister and now MEP Brian Hayes, with the OPW committing to paying approximately one third of the estimated costs following completion.
