Water supply returns to Taghmon

By Dan Walsh

Normal water supply is returning to Uisce Éireann customers in Taghmon following the successful repair of a complex burst water main which had caused an interruption to local homes and businesses since yesterday.

TAGHMON, CO. WEXFORD

While the burst is repaired and the network is refilling, full supply is not expected to return to all customers until 6pm. 

Alternative water supplies in the forms of alternative water sources will remain in place in the residential areas of the village as well as at the Taghmon Camross GAA Club grounds.

Customers are reminded to bring their own containers when drawing water from the tanker, and to boil the water before use as a precautionary measure. Great care should be taken with boiled water to avoid burns and scalds as accidents can easily happen, especially with children.

Padraig Lyng of Uisce Éireann thanked affected customers for their understanding while these repair works were being carried out. “Uisce Éireann acknowledges the disruption that can be caused by an unplanned interruption. We wish to thank customers in the area for their patience while these repairs were underway.”
