Berryhill Airdrie Sewer Upgrade

Project Overview
We are upgrading the waste water infrastructure to support the growth of sustainable new housing in the Glenmavis area of Airdrie. The project will also reduce the risk of sewer flooding by installing nearly 500 metres of new pipework.
At A Glance
- Project to support sustainable new housing and reduce the risk of future sewer flooding
- £2million investment through our commercial subsidiary Scottish Water Horizons
- Work started July 2024 and took approximately nine months to complete
What We Are Doing
We installed nearly 500 metres of new sewer in three phases over approximately nine months.
Phase 1: Raebog Road (in grass verge) between Dunvegan and Windsor Drive
Phase 2: Coatbridge Road, Glenmavis Road and the field upstream of Woodhead Crescent
Phase 3: Glenmavis Road (including the site compound for the whole project)
The new sewer was installed using ‘rolling’ traffic management along Glenmavis Road and onto Coatbridge Road.

Rolling traffic management was deployed

Why We Are Doing It
The project will deliver benefits for existing customers by reducing the risk of sewer flooding and will also support sustainable new housing in the local area.
Scottish Water is committed to supporting sustainable growth and delivering much-needed improvements for communities and the environment to meet the challenges of climate change, ageing assets and increasing demand.
