Paredes de Coura opens €757,000 tender to upgrade Formariz industrial zone water supply

Paredes de Coura council has put out to tender a water supply overhaul for the Formariz industrial zone, with a base price of €757,000 plus VAT. Mayor Tiago Cunha says the existing network no longer meets the zone's needs. The works include a new reservoir on high ground next to the zone, two supply mains and a stretch of distribution pipe, which will also improve pressure in the fire-fighting network. He expects the parish's household supply to become more reliable and the area to attract new investment. Bids close on 26 November and the works are set to take 540 days.
