Information below is relevant until further updates are provided here or on our Supply and Service Updates section

Customers in the Castlemaine and Currans areas of Kerry may be experiencing water outages due to a burst main. 

Uisce Éireann crews are on site carrying out repairs. It is estimated that repairs will be completed by 10pm this evening.

The following areas are affected in the Castlemaine area: Knockaneacoolteen, Ballyfinnane, Ballygamboon, Breashagh, Ballynamona, Kiltallagh, Castlemaine, Ardcanaght, Brackhill, Cloonmore, Rathpoge East, Ballymacandy, Rusheen, Mounthenry, Rathmore, Rathbeg.

The following areas are affected in the Currans area: Riverville, Urrohogal, Meanus, Kilfallinga, Currans village, Springmount, Coolnacalliagh.

Typically, it takes two to three hours following repairs for normal supply to be restored to all customers affected by an unplanned outage. 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.

Vulnerable customers registered with Uisce Éireann receive direct communications for both planned and unplanned outages lasting more than four hours. To register as a vulnerable customer or as an alternative contact, please visit our Vulnerable Customers page.
