Some 30,000 people left without running water on Friday due to water workers’ action
In a statement on Friday afternoon Uisce Éireann said work was under way to restore services in a number of impacted areas after pickets were lifted at 1pm, 11 hours earlier than originally anticipated.
It is understood that talks about the provision of written guarantees by local authorities in Tipperary and Waterford had resulted in the workers deciding to conclude their action early and allow for work to commence on restoring supplies in advance of the bank holiday weekend where they had been halted by faults.
The plants affected were Adamstown, Stradbally, Ballylaneen, Crotty’s Lake, Glenary, Poulavanogue and Glashaboy, Uisce Éireann said. “Further updates on the restoration of normal supply in the affected areas will issue once pickets are lifted and Uisce Éireann crews gain access to the affected sites to assess and carry out essential remedial works,” he said.
