Work is continuing to restore the water supply to consumers on the Kerry Central Regional Water Supply Scheme.

The work is taking place following a major burst last week.

Water levels across the network and reservoirs continue to recover well today.

While water supply has returned to most of the areas impacted, customers located on higher grounds and on the extremities of the network may continue to experience temporary outages and/or low water pressure.

Irish Water is appealing to the public to conserve water and to only use what they need whilst continuing to adhere to public health advice regarding COVID-19. This will help with the ongoing restoration of water supply and help reservoir levels continue to refill across the county so that daytime water supply can be maintained. Night-time restrictions may be needed in some locations over the coming days.

Anna Brosnan, Irish Water said: "The recovery of water supply to all customers impacted by last week’s burst is going well. Dedicated water services crews are continuing their work to restore normal water supply today. We want to thank customers for their patience over the last week and ask everyone to make an effort to conserve water to help with the recovery phase and the ongoing restoration of water supply to all."
