Caledonia Water Alliance (CWA) has completed work on a £2.8 million water mains upgrade project in Cumbernauld.

The Scottish Water investment involved installing a new 1.2 mile stretch of water main along Forest Road from its junction with Arns Road to the ramp of the B8045.

In May last year, a burst water main in the area caused disruption to normal water supplies for around 6,000 customers.


John Rae, Scottish Water's Water Operations General Manager, said: "We're delighted that this challenging and high profile improvement work has been completed well in advance of when we'd originally anticipated. That's testament to how well the teams from CWA and Scottish Water worked together on this project.

"Our investment here means that customers can be confident in their water supply and a reduced risk of future disruption.

"We'd like to thank customers in the area for their patience and understanding throughout these works, and we hope that they are pleased with the results."
