Repairs completed and water supply returning to impacted customers in Duleek

Information below is relevant until further updates are provided here or on our Supply and Service Updates section.

Uisce Éireann crews have successfully completed repairs following a burst water mains impacting customers in Platin Road, Donore, Balloy, Rosnaree, Garballagh, Duleek and surrounding areas in Co. Meath.

Following reports of a supply disruption, dedicated crews 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 now. Due to the size of the network, it may take until later this evening before normal water pressure is fully returned to all customers, especially for those on higher ground or at the end of the network.

Michael Cunniffe, Water Operations Lead at Uisce Eireann, acknowledged the impact to customers, adding: "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".
