Irish Water and Galway City Council are advising customers in Shantalla, Salthill and the southern part of Knocknacarra that due to essential works their water supply may be interrupted tomorrow, Wednesday, January 27. The works are due to take place between 9am and 6pm.

A trunk watermain serving a large part of the west side of the city is being diverted to facilitate essential works which are being carried out in line with Covid-19 protocols.

 Explaining further Tim O’Connor, Irish Water said: “Arrangements are being made to ensure in as far as possible that water supply will be maintained to most of the areas affected during the works. It is expected though that there will be low pressure throughout the day.

Irish Water’s care helpline is open 24/7 on 1850 278 278 and customers can also contact the utility on Twitter @IWCare with any queries.
