An appeal to the public in Castlecomer to reduce water

Information below is relevant until further updates are provided here or on our Supply and Service Updates section

Uisce Éireann wishes to advise customers in the Castlecomer area that overnight supply restrictions are required to conserve water and maintain a daytime supply.

Starting tonight, overnight restrictions will be in place from 9 pm until 9 am until further notice.

During these times, customers in the following areas may experience interruptions to supply, discolouration, or reduced pressure: Clogh, Ardra, Massford, Moneenroe, Coolbawn, and Castlecomer.

Customers should allow the supply to fully return 3-4 hours after the estimated restoration time.

Uisce Éireann’s Shane Aylward again thanked customers for their patience during the restrictions and especially for their efforts to conserve water. "We’re doing everything we can to protect and maintain supplies throughout the summer, but we’re also asking our Castlecomer customers to help by doing what they can to reduce their use. If everyone in the area takes a few simple steps to reduce the volume used around their homes, businesses, and gardens, we can make our water go further and help maintain normal supplies.”

Uisce Éireann is taking measures to maintain everyday daytime supplies through interventions such as tankering to reservoirs, night-time restrictions, and pressure management.

For those looking to track their progress and learn more about water conservation, Uisce Éireann has developed an easy-to-use conservation calculator, which allows people to track their personal water usage.
