Water Disruption Graiguecullen & The Swan
Carlow County Council are planning a major water shut off in Graiguecullen Thursday night/Friday morning between 10pm and 5 am. It is likely that some areas will experience low pressures on Friday morning. Road diversions & closures etc will be in place around the forge, Chapel St., and Maryborough st.
Some customers will experience low pressure and limited supply until lunch time in some places including housing in Rochford Manor and areas of Crossneen.
Also due to water shortages in the Swan we are forced to decrease supply at night and may have to do that for the remainder of the week to increase supply in reservoir.
