The South Campshires Flood Protection Project started construction in November, 2014. These works are ongoing on the south quays of the River Liffey and are due to be substantially completed at the end of Q3 2017. The works extend from Butt Bridge, at the upstream extent, to a point 130 metres downstream of Samuel Beckett Bridge at the downstream extent - a distance of approximately 1,050 metres.

The scheme, when completed, will protect a large flood cell with significant business, retail and densely populated residential areas.
