Project Overview

Multiple investments for Stewarton's waste water infrastructure will be delivered, with works beginning on site over two years from October 2024. 

The works will help alleviate sewer flooding, improve waste water services for customers and help protect the local environment. 

We are taking a holistic approach to all investments in the town, looking at them collectively so that we can share resources and minimise disruption where possible.

Community Engagement

In September 2024 we held another drop-in event to update the local community on the Barbours Park project and the other planned investments.

Members of the community were able to find out about our proposed investment projects for Stewarton and why they are needed. They also met the teams who will deliver the works.

What We Are Doing 

We are upgrading sewer infrastructure at various locations in the town:

  • Barbours Park Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) – we are relocating a CSO and building a new storm tank to create greater capacity in the sewer network
  • David Dale Kirk Glebe Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) – we will be installing a brand new CSO
  • High Street Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) replacement – we are replacing and upgrading the existing CSO
  • Kirkford Bridge – we are updating an existing CSO and associated pipework

Why We Are Doing It 

There has been a history of sewer flooding in the town and the improvements will help address sewer flooding and the distress and upset it causes. The projects have been designed to:

  • Alleviate flooding in Stewarton
  • Significantly reduce sewer-related debris in the environment
  • Reduce discharges from the sewer network
  • Provide us with more reliable monitoring and reporting data

Work in Barbours Park begins in October where a relocated Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) and new giant underground storage tank will be built, and a new upgraded surface water sewer installed.
