LIMERICK County Council today said the ongoing thaw has resulted in extensive watermain breaks throughout County Limerick. The local authority has indicated that the public can expect periodic water shut-offs over the coming days.
The Council has described the disruption to local water supplies as “unprecedented”, and said it is continuing to work around the clock to repair burst water mains and restore water supply to the affected customers.
In the worst affected areas of West Limerick arrangements are being made to provide alternative water supplies to the towns of Abbeyfeale and Newcastle West.
