Water Supply Returned In Leixlip Following Main Burst

Major main burst disrupted water supply in Leixlip and surrounding areas yesterday.

Water supply has returned to the majority of customers in Leixlip following a burst to a major trunk water main yesterday. 

Uisce Éireann crews were immediately deployed to restore normal water supply to impacted customers as quickly as possible in Leixlip and surrounding areas in Co. Kildare.

Repairs have successfully been completed and water supply has returned to the majority of customers at Leixlip village, Wonderfull Barn, Dublin-Celbridge Road and surrounding areas in Co. Kildare.  It may take until later today before normal water pressure is fully returned to all customers, especially for those on higher ground or at the end of the network.

Anyone who experiences issues with discolouration is asked to run the cold water tap in the kitchen for a few minutes. Doing this usually clears any unusual colour. Further information on discoloured water is available at https://www.water.ie/help/water-quality/discoloured-water/

Uisce Éireann understands the inconvenience when an unplanned outage occurs and thanks customers for their patience while they worked to restore supply.
