Essential repairs to a burst watermain impacting customers in Donore Road and Matthews Lane, Drogheda

Customers may experience low pressure and/or outages for short periods

Irish Water is working in partnership with Louth County Council to carry out repairs to a burst watermain in Drogheda. While works are ongoing customers in Donore Road and Matthews Lane may be impacted by disruption to their supply.

Customers may experience low pressure and/or outages for short periods today, Thursday 14 May, until 8:00pm but it is important to continue to follow the HSE guidance on hand-washing. It may take 2-3 hours for normal water supply to return to all customers.

Irish Water and Louth County Council understands the inconvenience caused when repair works occur and thanks customers for their patience while we complete these essential works and restore normal supply to impacted customers. Irish Water and Louth County Council regret any inconvenience caused.

Irish Water is working at this time, with our local authority partners, contractors and others to safeguard the health and well-being of staff and the public and to ensure the continuity of drinking water and wastewater services.
