€600k sewerage scheme on hold

WORK on a sewerage scheme in Co Limerick has come to a halt after a contractor decided to go into liquidation.

The €600,000 scheme was being provided in the village of Feenagh to facilitate the development of a 14-house voluntary housing scheme and a cluster of existing houses.

Work commenced six months ago and the project was partially-completed when the Galway firm notified the council of its operating difficulties.
