Work on town’s flood defences set for 2013
A 2013 date has been pencilled in by Cork County Council for the commencement of the proposed €14 million scheme in Skibbereen.
County engineer Noel O’Keeffe said preferred options presented to the council by its consultants, RPS, included building embankments and large protecting walls, primarily along the banks of the River Ilen, west of the town.
