Uisce Éireann has commenced the construction of new water infrastructure in Two Mile House, Co Kildare to support future growth and development in the area.

The works involve the construction of 4.2km of new water mains to increase the supply capacity of the water network in the Newbridge area of Co Kildare to support social and economic development

Works will take place in stages in Two Mile House Village; Two Mile House to R448; R448 to Mullacash Middle; and Mullacash Middle to Swordlestown North. Works will require localised lane and road closures, which will be phased to minimise disruption to the community. Traffic management will be communicated locally in advance of each phase commencing.

Derek Deignan, Programme Manager, Uisce Éireann, welcomed the commencement of the works in Two Mile House. “This project is being delivered to support existing and future developments within the community. It will improve the supply capacity of the existing water network in the area, improving performance and reducing demands on the current network,” he said.

The works will be carried out on behalf of Uisce Éireann by Shareridge Ltd and are expected to be completed by Q4 2025.

The works may involve some short-term water interruptions, and the project team will ensure that customers are given a minimum of 48 hours’ notice prior to any planned water interruptions.

“We understand that this type of work can be inconvenient and work crews will make every effort to minimise any disruption these necessary works cause,” Derek added.

Details of any supply interruptions associated with this project will be updated regularly on the Uisce Éireann website.
