The Bandon Flood Relief Scheme is due to be substantially completed in the third quarter of 2019. Scheduled works on Bandon Bridge for 2018 have now finished. A small amount of work remains to be completed on the bridge and this will resume in May of next year and is due to be completed by July 2019. Scheme flood defence walls and embankments are now substantially completed. The works undertaken to date offer greatly increased flood protection to the town.
