Area Affected
About half of the project will involve the replacement of about 750 metres of 9in iron pipe in the Springfield Road area.
This pipe will be replaced with 250mm plastic pipe which is more robust, less susceptible to bursts and will help provide better quality water. There will be some temporary traffic disruption and it is likely that there will be some traffic management put in place.
The rest of the project will comprise about another 750 metres of mains pipe replacement in nearby streets such as Ochil Drive, Campsie Drive, Pentland Court, Sidlaw Avenue, Cairngorm Crescent and Dalveen Court.
