The Ennis South Flood Relief Scheme is being progressed by Clare County Council with funding and advice as appropriate from the Office of Public Works (OPW), and as such, the matters of tender and construction dates will ultimately be decided by the Council. It is acknowledged however that necessary discussions to date relating to technical aspects of the scheme have impacted the program somewhat. The OPW expects to write to the Council before the end of July in relation to the approval of funding for the Scheme.
