Access path to Bryansford Avenue across the Section 'C' embankment

Before the embankment was built the path ran at the same level as the stream on the right which after heavy rain would often flood the path.

The Shimna Flood Alleviation Scheme

This 5.5 million NI Government Scheme is designed to alleviate the periodic flooding incidents in the basins of the Shimna and Tullybranigan Rivers. A similar scheme on the Burren, a tributary of the Shimna, was successfully completed almost two decades ago. The work is undertaken by the Ballynahinch company of Dawson Wam, a leading firm in this field.
