The four contractors will be improving the water mains infrastructure throughout Northern Ireland over the next four years, improving the reliability and security of the water supply as well as improving water quality.
NI Water chief executive Sara Venning said: “This is one of NI Water’s largest contracts, which will deliver major improvements to the water mains 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 water mains 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.”
