Water Bars

Installing water bars on farm roadways can make a big difference to prevent flows into rivers and streams.

Run-off from impermeable surfaces such as farm roadways must be managed to prevent flows into rivers and streams. Retrofitting water bars on existing farm roadways can mitigate runoff pathways by diverting water into areas of higher permeability such as fields and verges or into runoff storage areas. Cross drains typically sit below the surface of the road whereas water bars/deflectors sit above the surface.
Funded is €100 per unit with a maximum of six units.
