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.
