Manx Utilities has announced that the construction of the Peel Wastewater Treatment Works is scheduled to commence this week.
The work is being led by principal contractor Eric Wright Water, with support from Paul Carey & Sons Ltd.
Initial activities will focus on site preparation, including the stripping of topsoil, setting up the site compound, and installing security fencing.
This will be followed by trenching work in preparation for the diversion of overhead electricity cables.
Additionally, there will be some work to improve access to the site, which is not expected to significantly impact Glenfaba Road users.
Chair John Wannenburgh MHK said: “I am pleased to see this long-awaited project move forward, not only for Peel but as part of the final two remaining projects to end the discharge of raw sewage into the sea around our precious coastline.”
