Gas pipeline to be completed by end of the year

-

A multi-million pound gas pipeline across south west Scotland is on course to be completed by the end of this year.

The 31-mile Cluden to Brighouse Bay project aims to “reinforce security of energy supply” for Ireland.

Work on the project began last year and more than half has now been completed. Gas Networks Ireland (GNI) said work will continue throughout the year and is expected to be finished by the end of 2018.

The scheme has been backed by millions of pounds of EU funding.
