Ballivor Needs Water
Increase the storage capacity at Ballivor water treatment plant and build a new water storage tank
Why is this important?
In 2021, Uisce Éireann said that the water treatment plant in Ballivor, Meath, was a priority and works to increase the storage capacity would begin shortly. In 2024, they said work would be completed by 2027.
We are halfway through 2026 and no work has commenced.
The water tower in Ballivor needs to be refilled too often because it does not have the storage capacity for the amount of houses it supplies. People are left without water for prolonged periods as a result.
There have been parents of newborns left without water to clean bottles, elderly people who can’t even fill their kettle, and appliances damaged from the residual buildup pumped from the outdated tower.
