REPAIRS have been successfully completed to a burst water main which impacted up to forty properties in the Doonbeg area.

Following reports of a supply disruption on Tuesday, dedicated crews from Uisce Éireann were immediately deployed and worked hard to restore normal water supply to impacted customers as quickly as possible.

Repairs have successfully been completed and water supply has returned to the majority of customers at Glascoune, Baltard, Bealaha, Farrihy, Doonmore, Doonbeg, Kilrush and surrounding areas.

Some households were expected to be without supply until later on Wednesday evening, especially for those on higher ground or at the end of the network.

Darragh Conneely, Water Operations Lead at Uisce Éireann, acknowledged the impact to customers. “On behalf of Uisce Éireann, I’d like to thank customers who were impacted by his unplanned outage for their patience, co-operation, and assistance while we worked to complete the repairs as quickly as possible and regret any inconvenience caused”.
