Essential overnight water restrictions continue in Clonakilty over the weekend

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 Clonakilty, Co. Cork that it will be necessary to implement water conservation measures overnight to maintain daytime supplies. In particular, high-ground areas will experience a reduction in pressure and flow during the restrictions. Uisce Éireann is working to restore the water supply as quickly as possible to impacted customers.

Restrictions are scheduled to take place nightly from 11pm – 6am from Friday 29th November until Monday, 2nd December 2024.

Uisce Eireann regrets any inconvenience caused and is continuing to work to restore normal operations. Our priority is the provision of clean safe drinking water to communities.

Niall O’Riordan, Operations Lead with Uisce Éireann said, “These restrictions are necessary in order to maintain and protect a daytime supply. We understand the inconvenience that restrictions cause and want to thank the community for their patience.

Following return of supply, it typically takes two to three hours for normal supply to fully be restored to all areas as the water refills the network, especially for those on higher ground or at the end of the network.

Vulnerable customers who have registered with Uisce Éireann receive direct communications from us for planned and unplanned outages lasting more than four hours. The Uisce Éireann customer care helpline is open 24/7 on 1800 278 278 and customers can also contact us on X @IWCare with any queries.
