Finally some improvements in Cashel water supply with a further promise of upgrades

Weary Cashel residents have been told that the water quality and supply in taps issues of recent years will soon be a thing of the past.

Cashel’s Cathal Brugha Street over 750 metres of aged cast iron water mains will be replaced improving water quality, a statement from Uisce Éireann has promised.

The works will take place between Cathal Brugha Street and Lacey Square. During the works, traffic management in the form of a mix of stop/go and traffic lights will be in place.

Over 300m of water mains was replaced earlier this year between the junction of Rock Lane and Moor Lane.

As part of Uisce Éireann’s Leakage Reduction Programme, residents can expect improved water quality to hundreds of homes as well as a reduction in the high levels of leakage locally.

This project will not only ensure the provision of safe drinking water they say, but they will support sustainable growth and enhance the environment. This project is expected to be completed by Summer 2025. 

Since 2018, Uisce Éireann has invested more than €500 million to upgrade the underground water network across the country through the delivery of the national Leakage Reduction Programme.
