Irish Water begins more essential maintenance works in Kildare on Monday

The project, it says, is being undertaken in collaboration with Kildare County Council.

The firm says the "final phase of works are scheduled to continue from Monday 8 November until Friday 12 November. "

They may impact supply to parts of Ballymore Eustance, particularly, Liffey Heights

Intermittent low water pressure and some discoloration may arise.

John O Donoghue, Regional Operations Manager, Irish Water says These works form part of the Barrow Extension project which will provide up to an additional 18 million litres of drinking water per day for communities across the region. This is the equivalent of the average daily water consumption of 140,000 people and will support future growth and ensure a sustainable, secure and reliable water supply for customers now and into the future. The project, which began in September 2020, involved the construction of 3km of new water mains between Killashee and Naas, via the Rathasker Road; two new pumping stations at Brannockstown and Carnalway; and upgrades to the pipework at Ballymore Eustace Water Treatment Plant and Old Kilcullen Reservoir.
