Buncrana

Is there a drive over drain separate to this? The sluice on my grey tank is dead centre behind the rear axel, I'd need a rollaway tank to empty into that.

It's good that they're trying but it's another case of something being designed without regard for user needs, my van is in no way unique.

This is a great improvement to the Aire . The area would not suit a driveover drain as it is in a public carpark and unfortunately some motorhomers would not keep the area clean.

Leo that is a great we Aires and they are trying, Bryan just as explained there is not a lot of room for a drive over drain but again as Martin has explained a little bit of hose helps in situations like this.
I bought one of those waste hoses as I can only let out grey waste from drivers side and it has solved a lot of problems for me.

In fairness Buncrana is a very restricted area and this is a welcome improvement. Maybe a drive over drain would be feasible in the area outside the actual aire.

I welcome all facilities, anything is an improvement over nothing. I looked at the device in the picture and someone has gone to a huge amount of effort to put it in place but they've clearly rushed to solution without considering the user needs. From experience, taking the time to understand user needs gets you to a better solution at a lower cost.

There is a 100mm pipe with the lid at the side of of the unit at the bottom . See the 3rd photo. A hose from your tank would work.

Good to see that they've made efforts to provide more services.

I've talked to the council at length about provision of services, the expenditure they go to and the services they provide.
I've offered collectively to provide a non-professional , free, and unbiased consultation from an end users prospective, what a motorhome user requires and what would be best suited to a particular sites needs & the savings that could be made from not over complicating things.
So far it has fell on deaf ears and I believe they do not want outside help regarding their decisions as it makes them seem unfit to design the area required, blatantly obvious from the case depicted.
This once again shows the lack of knowledge, the inherent design failures and their complete and utter lack of understanding when it comes to provision of the amenity required & their absolute adherence to not asking the people who can provide the knowledge for their views.
Sadly it seems to be commonplace in any public sector role.

Looks great with the tap pulling off the wall, and we all know what is going to be shoved up on to the tap.
My discription would be worse than useless, leaving themselves open to contaminating the public water supply.
Ecoli going back up trough the tap into the Water source.
I'd be interested to know where did the unit in Buncrana come from, who supplied it, and what was its original use. (caravan park?)
Is there a fresh water supply in the area?

Are some people trying to reinvent the wheel just keep it simple there are some very good examples all over the country you don't have to go to far to see them

It would appear that a drive over drain is installed; see Pic.1, Not sure if that’s a storm drain or a grey discharge drain.
Haven’t been, just other pictures I found of the installation.
