Stay up to date on O’Devaney building works

As co-Chair of the O’Devaney Gardens Community Consultative Forum, I wanted to share with you some information as to the programme of work being undertaken within the O’Devaney Gardens and to keep you informed as to what further works are expected to take place over the next four to six weeks.

The second relates to the start of major construction which will be managed and delivered by SISK.

• ENABLING WORKS PROGRAMME
• The completion of works to deliver the new footpath linking Montpelier Close and Montpelier Avenue are running behind schedule.
• The realignment of the work from the existing T-junction southwards towards Montpelier Park and Montpelier Gardens is progressing but it will be February before they are expected to be concluded.
