Midleton flood defence scheme set to cost €20m

It will cost an estimated €20m to create flood defences to protect the town of Midleton, which has suffered from flooding on several occasions in recent years, the most recent occurring early last year.

The first round of public consultation on the flood relief programme for the Owenacurra and Dungourney rivers, which both flow into the town, will be held at the Midleton park Hotel between 3pm and 7pm on Thursday.
