Galway Daily news Power outages disrupting water supply

Multiple areas in Galway may experience water outages or supply interruptions due to damage caused to electrical infrastructure by Storm Debi.

Galway County Council has warned that power outages caused by Storm Debi are affecting the water supply to the Abbeyknockmoy and Kinvara areas.

Homes and businesses may experience low water pressure and complete water outages as a result of this damage.

The affected areas are Kinvara, from the Merriman out to Doorus and surrounding areas; and Abbeyknockmoy and surrounding areas served by the Mid-Galway Regional Water Supply Scheme.

It may take several hours for people’s full water supply to return once power outages have been repaired.

The ESB is dealing with dozens of power outages across Galway affecting thousands of homes and businesses today.

It is currently estimated that the majority of outages will be repaired by 6pm on Monday evening, though some repairs may continue into the night.
