15 March 2023

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

Uisce Éireann working in partnership with Monaghan County Council are working to restore normal water supply as quickly as possible to impacted customers following a burst water main in Monaghan Town.

Dedicated water services crews are onsite working on repairs and are making every effort to minimise disruption and restore normal water supply as quickly as possible. Customers in the following areas will be impacted by reduced water pressure and water outages until works are completed: The Glen Road, Poundhill, Derry Road, Dublin Road, Manorwood, Cootehill Road, Monaghan Town and surrounding areas.

Repairs are expected to be completed this afternoon. It typically takes up to three hours for normal water supply to fully restore to all customers as the water network refills. 

Operations Lead for Uisce Éireann, Peter Gallagher, said: “Uisce Éireann understands the inconvenience when a burst occurs and we would like to thank impacted customers in advance for their patience while we work to complete the repairs and restore normal supply as quickly as possible.” 

The Uisce Éireann customer care helpline is open 24/7 on 1800 278 278 and customers can also contact us on Twitter @IWCare with any queries.
