It is estimated that the supply will be restored by 9am on Wednesday, 8 October.

Alternative water supplies will be available at Tipperary Town Graveyard and Rossmore Village Housing Estate from 4pm today.

Customers are reminded to use their own containers when taking water from the tanker and to boil water before consumption as a precautionary measure, as per advice from the Health Service Executive.

Uisce Éireann’s Pierce Faherty said: “We understand the inconvenience that unplanned outages can have. Crews have been mobilised since early this morning and we are working to complete this work as quickly as possible.”

However, it may take longer for normal supply to be restored to customers at the end of the network or on higher ground as the system recharges.
