    I'm looking for areas in Cork where water meters are currently being installed and will be installed next week. Do you know any places?

    I'm wondering if they use concrete, plastic or composite boxes for the meters and what meters they are exactly.

    All the contracts have been placed already. All this information is available online. i'm in work so i can't poke around but i recall the meter make and type was named before.
    Looking at the picture you should be able to see the type of box which is being used

    Now if only I could find out how to get rid of the red paint crap they leave behind which marks underground utilities. Power hose didn't even take it off after they left. Bloomin footpath I'd covered in red lines. Idiots.

    Little protest outside an estate in Passage West the last week or so. They are installing down Rochester road at the minute I think.

    it will wash off in a couple of months.
    I'd rather a few marked lines on the foothpath rather than a tomb stone marking the spot where a worker was electrocuted. I hope you would rather this also

    They installed an itron metre in my house in Ballincollig.
    This data transmission device was attached on top of it to transmit the reading wirelessly.
