Work to replace mains water pipes is set to commence this week in Hawarden

Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water will be replacing old iron and steel water pipes with new plastic pipes partly due to a high level of iron in drinking water.

Welsh Water say their contractors will use two gangs who will work towards each other in an effort to complete the main work before Christmas.

However, they have allowed for an additional 2 weeks from January 12 to January 29 (2016) in case they encounter any delays and complete remedial works that may need to be carried out.
