I am advised that the Douglas flood relief scheme (incl Togher culvert) is being progressed by Cork County Council. The scheme has received planning approval and is currently at detailed design stage with procurement of the civil works contractor to take place in the first quarter of this year, with the appointment of the civil works contractor to follow shortly thereafter. Construction of the scheme is proposed to commence in the third quarter of 2019.
