Uisce Éireann are responding to a water outage impacting customers in Whiterock Hill and surrounding areas of Wexford town following a burst on a watermain.
Crews have been on site since this morning, and repairs are expected to be completed by approximately 3pm today.
Uisce Éireann’s Water Operations Manager for Wexford, Padraig Lyng, acknowledged the disruption to homes and businesses: “We understand the significant impact this unplanned outage is having on customers in Whiterock Hill and surrounding areas.
“Our crews are working to restore supply as quickly and as safely as possible. We thank the community for their continued patience while these essential repairs are carried out,” added Mr Lyng.
Customers may continue to experience low pressure or outages until repairs are completed and the network refills. Typically, it can take a number of hours following repairs for normal supply to return to all customers, particularly for those at the end of the network or on higher ground.
