BREAKING: Water restored to 3,000 Tipperary homes after days of disruption
Uisce Éireann has restored supply to customers on the Galtee Regional Water Supply
Uisce Éireann has restored supply to customers on the Galtee Regional Water Supply following a third burst in quick succession.
Water crews worked tirelessly over the weekend to restore normal water supply to homes and businesses served by the Galtee Regional Water Supply Scheme following a third burst on the same network in quick succession.
While supply has returned to the majority of customers, those at the outskirts of the network and those on higher ground may experience low pressure as water begins to return.
Alternative water supplies will remain in place in Emly, Limerick Junction, and Cullen until Tuesday morning.
Customers are reminded to use their own containers when taking water from tankers and to boil water before consumption as a precautionary measure.
Pierce Faherty, Operations Lead at Uisce Éireann, stated:
"Following a third unplanned outage on the Galtee Supply on Saturday evening, our water services crews were dispatched immediately.
"The team made every effort to restore supply as soon as possible, and repairs were completed on Sunday.
"Water tankers will remain in place until Tuesday morning in Emly, Limerick Junction, and Cullen."
