Update - Wednesday 7th at 4.30 pm
As Council crews continue to work to repair the burst watermain, please be advised that there is now severe traffic disruption in the area. We advise motorists to avoid the area if at all possible.
Our Area Engineer has advised that the watermain will be fully repaired, water restored and road re-opened by approx 5.30 pm this evening.
Due to a major water burst on Newtownsmith, water has been turned off in the area.
The Water Crew are currently repairing this main. Although an exact time cannot be given at this stage when water will be restored, it is hoped to have water back by this evening.
Queens Road\Windsor Terrace and Newtownsmith road will be closed to traffic in order to facilitate repair. Traffic diversions are in place - traffic will be diverted through Link Road, Glasthule and Marine Road Dun Laoghaire.
