Loughrea water supply impacted tonight and tomorrow

Irish Water has identified an issue at #Loughrea Water Treatment Plant that will result in customers’ water supply being impacted tonight (Saturday, 18 December) and tomorrow (Sunday, 19 December).

Irish Water is working with with Galway County Council to restore water as quickly as possible to the properties impacted.

The areas affected are:

  • Caheronaun
  • Danesfort
  • “The Hill”
  • Abbey Street and adjoining areas

Dedicated water service crews have mobilised and repairs are expected to be complete by 6pm tomorrow evening. Typically it takes two to three hours after this to restore normal supply to all customers affected by an unplanned outage.

We understand the inconvenience unplanned outages can have on customers and we appreciate your patience as we work to return the water supply to homes and businesses as quickly as possible.”
