Disruption to Louth water supply due to emergency works

Irish Water is working in partnership with Louth County Council to carry out emergency water main repairs in Moorehall, Hale Street, Ardee and surrounding areas.

While repairs are underway customers in these locations may experience low water pressure and/or outages for short periods today, Thursday, December 3, until 6pm.
