Plans approved for Potable Water Service Reservoir at Jurby

Thu, 21 Dec 2023

Manx Utilities has received planning permission to construct a new Potable Water Service Reservoir and Pump Station in Jurby.

It will be located off the A14 Ballamenagh Road, adjacent to the ex-RAF Parade Ground in Jurby.

In conjunction with the new pipeline recently installed in the area the £2.9 million project will improve the quality of supply to existing customers and support and deliver the essential fire-fighting requirements of the IOM Fire & Rescue Service for the industrial estate and surrounding areas. The installation will also enable future expansion of Jurby including the developments identified within the Area Plan for the North and West.

It is planned that construction will commence in the summer of 2024 and is expected to take 6 months.
