The Saggart Reservoir Project
The Saggart Reservoir Project, which won the Silver Award, was undertaken for Uisce Éireann Irish Water from 2021 to 2024. It showcases Coffey’s engineering expertise in delivering water security for the Greater Dublin Area.
As the main contractor, Coffey was responsible for this strategically important project, which secures the supply of drinking water to homes and businesses in the Greater Dublin Area for the foreseeable future.
Key Project Highlights:
- Construction of a new state-of-the-art covered treated water storage reservoir
- Supplied from Ireland’s largest water treatment plant at Ballymore Eustace
- Impressive capacity of 100 million litres of treated drinking water (equivalent to 40 Olympic-sized swimming pools)
- Sustainable design incorporating a wildflower meadow roof, GGBS concrete, and energy-efficient systems
The Saggart Reservoir project sets new benchmarks for innovation and sustainability in construction while generating lasting value for stakeholders and the local community.
