Uisce Éireann will carry out essential repair and maintenance works to the water network on the west side of Galway City through the night of Monday, 21 October into the morning of Tuesday, 22 October.

The overnight repair works are necessary to safeguard the drinking water supply in the area. The works are scheduled to take place from 10pm on Monday night to 6am on Tuesday morning. 

Uisce Éireann customers in the areas of the Rahoon Road, Cedarwood and Highfield Park may experience some disruption to their water supply between those times. Customers in Ard na Coille and Rivendell may also experience reduced supply. The planned works may affect approximately 300 customers in the area.

Uisce Éireann will work to minimise the impact to customers while specialist crews carry out the repair works.

Speaking about the planned works, Shay Walsh of Uisce Éireann said that crews will work as quickly as possible through the night to complete the repairs and restore normal water supply.

“Uisce Éireann acknowledges the inconvenience caused by interruptions to water supply and thanks affected customers for their patience and cooperation while we deliver these essential works,” said Shay.
