Kanturk's Development Stalled by Insufficient Wastewater Infrastructure
Kanturk's growth is impeded by outdated wastewater treatment facilities, requiring urgent upgrades to support housing and business expansion. The planned improvements aim to comply with environmental standards and enable regional development.

Kanturk's outdated wastewater treatment plant is currently at or beyond capacity, hindering housing development and business expansion. Deputy O'Shea emphasizes that without upgraded infrastructure, the town cannot grow effectively, leading to delays for potential homeowners and developers.
The project is in the strategic assessment stage, with plans for a preliminary business case completion by Q1 2027. The new developer-led wastewater services infrastructure initiative allows for developers to work with Uisce Éireann on necessary upgrades.
Current limitations represent a significant barrier to local growth, creating uncertainty for residents and businesses alike. Without immediate action, Kanturk risks losing further development opportunities.
