SINN Féin Councillor Eric McGinley has welcomed confirmation from local Firmus Energy representatives that a significant investment in gas infrastructure is planned for the Foyle Springs / Creggan Road area of the city.
Cllr. McGinley said: “I have received confirmation from local Firmus Energy representatives that gas is planned to be made available this year to customers who live in Foyle Springs, Creggan Road and Marianus Park.
“This is an area with hundreds of households and residents will soon have the opportunity to have gas installed if they so desire.
“This investment will be welcomed by many people who would like the opportunity to move away from more traditional and expensive forms of energy such as fossil fuels and oil.
“I appreciate the commitment made by Firmus Energy towards this area and I would encourage anyone who is interested in changing over to gas to contact the company’s Customer Services on 0800 032 4567 or to use the website on www.firmusenergy.co.uk.”
