2km of new water pipes set to boost supply of South Longford village


The water supply in Newtowncashel is now set to improve following extensive works to replace ageing mains in the area.
Residents and businesses in Newtowncashel are set to benefit from a more reliable water supply following the completion of works on the local network.
Uisce Éireann replaced 2km of ageing water mains with modern pipes as part of efforts to improve the reliability of the water supply in the area.
The older mains had been prone to bursts and leaks, which had led to interruptions to the water supply and the loss of treated drinking water.
Uisce Éireann said the upgraded network will now provide greater reliability for homes and businesses across Newtowncashel.
The Newtowncashel project forms part of Uisce Éireann’s wider work to tackle leakage and upgrade water infrastructure across the country.
