Stamullen – Kiltrough to Balloy Water Network Upgrade

Uisce Éireann is upgrading the water infrastructure at Julianstown, Co Meath to support future growth and development in the area. 

The works involve the construction of 8.5km of water mains to cater for the future growth and development of the wider Julianstown and Stamullen area. These works are being carried out as part of Uisce Éireann’s Growth and Development Programme and are expected to commence in November 2026.

The section of works will take place starting from the junction of the L5615 Pilltown Rd / R132, heading South East along the R132 through Julianstown, then turning South on the Whitecross, Moorechurch, and Cock Hill Road, before terminating at the Balloy Water Reservoir site.

This project is being delivered to support existing and future developments within the community. It will improve the supply capacity of the existing water network in the area, improving performance and reducing demands on the current network.

The works will be carried out on behalf of Uisce Éireann by GMC Utilities Ltd and are expected to be completed in Q2 2028.
 

The benefits of these water network works include:

• Supporting social and economic development – This project will facilitate social and economic growth, including planned residential development.
• Improving the water network – This project will upgrade the water network, increasing the capacity to deliver reliable, sustainable high-quality water services.
• Providing a more resilient water supply – This project will improve the resilience of the water network, increasing connectivity to enable re-routing of water supply as required.

Details of Traffic Management will be available in advance of the project commencing. 

We understand that this type of work can be inconvenient and works crews will make every effort to minimise any disruption these necessary works cause.
