LATEST UPDATE on North Longford water supply following major repairs
Customers in Abbeylara have been asked to use water sparingly this evening as the supply returns to full capacity
Water supply has begun to returning to customers in Abbeylara and surrounding areas following the successful repair of a complex burst water main.
Uisce Éireann crews have been working since last Friday to locate and repair the burst main with the issue proving far more complicated than initially realised.
Customers with restored water supplies have been asked to use water sparingly this evening in order to allow supply catch up with demand while the system recovers.
North Longford residents have also been advised that 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.
