Public Exhibition - Proposed Enniscorthy Flood Defence Scheme

Tuesday, 18th June 2019 - 2:00pm

The exhibition will be on view in Enniscorthy library daily until the 18th of June. A representative from the FDS will be in attendance to answer questions on the dates/times:

  • Monday 20, May - 3pm to 8pm
  • Tuesday 28, May - 10.30am to 7.30pm
  • Wednesday 5, June - 10.30am to 7.30pm
  • Thursday 13, June - 3pm to 8pm

The proposed scheme combines a number of measures to prevent flooding in the town and covers a 3.5km stretch of the River Slaney, extending from 1.5km upstream of Enniscorthy Bridge to 2km downstream. These include river channel widening, river deepening, the construction of extensive glass panelled flood walls through the town centre and the removal of Seamus Rafter Bridge. This bridge is to be replaced with a new pedestrian bridge in the town centre and the construction of a new road bridge 500m further downstream. The estimated cost of the project is between 40 to 45 million euro.  All are welcome. 

The Enniscorthy FDS Project Team can be contacted at all times by post or email. Your queries and comments are most welcome.
