Water supply has been restored to normal levels in Oranmore this morning after the successful overnight repair of a burst water main at Tudor Vale.

The unplanned outage on Thursday evening caused supply disruptions to Uisce Éireann customers in Oranmore Town Centre and surrounding areas.

Uisce Éireann crews responded to the burst and worked into the early hours of the morning to isolate and repair the burst main. Repairs were complete at approximately 3am and supply has returned to normal levels for affected customers this morning.

Gerard Greally, Uisce Éireann Water Operations Manager, thanked affected customers for their understanding and commended the efforts of the crews who worked through the night to repair the burst.

“This was a complex burst which impacted supply to customers in Oranmore Town Centre and the surrounding areas. We acknowledge the inconvenience of an unplanned outage and thank customers for their patience while repairs were carried out,” said Gerard.
