Water supply returning to Wellingtonbridge

By Dan Walsh

Water supply services in Wellingtonbridge and adjacent areas have been restored following the successful completion of repairs to the local network by Uisce Éireann crews.  

Essential upgrade works resulted in an interruption to the water supply for customers in Wellingtonbridge, Carrig, Bannow, Duncormick and surrounding areas. Uisce Éireann crews worked to carry out repairs and supply is now returning to impacted customers.

Following repairs, it typically takes two to three hours for normal supply to restore to all customers affected by an unplanned outage. However, it may take longer for normal supply to be restored to customers on higher ground or at the end of the network. 

Padraig Lyng of Uisce Éireann thanked affected customers for their co-operation while repairs were underway. “Uisce Éireann acknowledges the inconvenience caused by interruption to the water supply and thanks customers for their patience and co-operation while these works were carried out,” said Mr. Lyng.
