Water disruptions likely for southside area on Friday

Mains repair works may cause water and traffic disruptions on Cork city’s southside on Friday, Uisce Éireann has warned.

The water utility company said the works, which are part of its national leakage reduction programme, are scheduled to take place from 10.30am until 2.30pm on Friday 22 September.

According to Uisce Éireann, which was formerly known as Irish Water, mains repair works may cause supply and traffic disruptions to Churchyard Lane, Ballinlough, and surrounding areas in Cork city.

There will be a traffic management plan in place for the duration of the works.

Uisce Éireann said it recommended that the public should allow two to three hours after the estimated restoration time for water supply to fully return.

To access updates on these works, the public is invited to visit the Uisce Éireann website, water.ie, using the reference: CCI00068072.
