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

Customers and businesses in Leixlip, Maynooth, Celbridge and surrounding areas may experience disruptions to their water supply today following a burst water main on the R148 Maynooth Road outside Leixlip. Our crews are on site carrying out repairs and every effort is being made to restore normal service as quickly and safely as possible.

Uisce Éireann's Eoghan Forristal said, "We understand how inconvenient an unexpected water outage can be. Our main priority is fixing this burst and returning a normal supply to all our customers. We really appreciate everyone in the community bearing with us while our crews get water back to homes and businesses."

Repairs are expected to be completed by 4pm this afternoon. Once repairs have been completed, water supplies will return gradually over the following hours. Customers in higher-lying areas or at the ends of the network may experience a longer wait while the water network refills.

To keep our crews and the public safe while repairs are underway, traffic management measures will be in place and clearly signposted. We thank local residents and road users for their cooperation.

Supporting customers, especially those who may be more vulnerable during service interruptions, remains a priority. Registered vulnerable customers receive direct communications from Uisce Éireann for planned and unplanned outages lasting more than four hours.

We are committed to keeping customers informed throughout the repair works. Customers can receive local updates by signing up to our free text alert service using their Eircode and mobile number. Updates are also available through our website, social media channels and customer care team, which is available 24 hours a day on 1800 278 278.
