Work is underway to restore the water supply to customers on the Mid Galway Water Supply after issues caused by Storm Bert.
The water treatment plant was impacted by a drop in raw water quality intake following Storm Bert, which has resulted in reduced water pressure and some outages.
The affected areas include Abbeyknockmoy, Monivea, Newcastle, Tamplecross, Gurteen, Carrabane, Cahertinny, Caherhenryhoe, Attymon and Kiltullagh and surrounding areas.
Anthony Skeffington, Regional Operations Manager with Uisce Éireann said, “Some customers supplied by the Mid Galway Water Supply Scheme will be impacted by reduced water pressure and water outages.”
“We understand how disruptive unplanned outages are and we regret the inconvenience caused. Crews currently are on site carrying out works and we expect to be able to give more detailed updated later today.”
When the supply is repaired it may take two to three hours for people to see their full water supply restored as the network refills.
