Roughly 1,000 homes in the Ballybane area of Galway City will experience water outages today as Uisce Eireann carries out work on the network.
Work is being carried out on the water network on the Ballybane Road from 9:30am to 5pm on Wednesday.
To facilitate these works it is necessary to shut off the water supply on this part of the network.
Approximately 1,000 customers on the Ballybane Road in the city and surrounding areas may be affected.
Uisce Éireann’s Leo O’Shea thanked affected customers for their co-operation ahead of the essential works.
“We wish to acknowledge the inconvenience caused by a planned outage and assure affected customers that crews will complete the works as quickly as possible to restore normal water supply on Wednesday evening,” said Leo.
Typically, it takes two to three hours following repairs for normal supply to restore to all customers.
However, it may take longer for normal supply to be restored to customers on higher ground or at the end of the network.
