Uisce Éireann crews are working to repair a burst watermain in Wexford Town.
The burst watermain is impacting customers in Roxborough, Mulgannon and surrounding areas, with repairs expected to be completed by 2pm today.
Uisce Éireann’s Padraig Lyng has assured customers that every effort is being made to restore a full water supply as quickly as possible.
To ensure the safety of the crews carrying out the repairs to the bursts and the safety of the public, traffic management will be in place and will be clearly signposted.
Typically, it takes two to three hours following repairs 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 at the end of the network or on higher ground as the system recharges.
