Longford communities set to benefit from improved quality water supply with installation of new pipes
The project is being delivered by Shareridge Ltd on behalf of Uisce Éireann with completion expected in mid-February 2027
UISCE Éireann crews are set to install 2.45 kms of new, modern pipes that will strengthen the local network and reduce disruption to homes and businesses across Longford.
HOMES and businesses in in Moatfarrell and Bracklon will benefit from Uisce Éireann’s commitment to provide a reliable water supply for everyone in the community.
The existing pipes were prone to bursts and leaks, leading to supply interruptions and the loss of treated drinking water, a valuable resource we all depend on.
Longford TD Micheál Carrigy said: “This project is welcome and will stop leakages, improve quality, and give the communities in Moatfarrell and Bracklon greater confidence in their water supply.”
“They will deliver a more reliable resilient water supply. Works will begin in late October and will include installing new water service connections from the public water main on the road to customers’ property boundaries and linking them to the customers’ water supply.”
The project is being delivered by Shareridge Ltd on behalf of Uisce Éireann with completion expected in mid-February 2027.
Customers can phone Uisce Éireann on 1800 278 278 if they have any questions about the project or visit the Water Supply Updates section of the Uisce Éireann website for regular updates.
