Maintenance Underway On Loughrea Water Supply

Key maintenance works are underway on the water supply in the Loughrea area of County Galway.

Irish Water and Galway County Council are collaborating to deliver the routine maintenance works on the Loughrea Regional Water Supply Scheme.

While these maintenance works are underway, customers in Craughwell and Loughrea may experience a slight increase in the taste and smell of chlorine in their drinking water.


Ensuring water networks are taken care of and properly maintained is an essential part of safeguarding the water supplies to customers' homes and businesses. Irish Water would like to assure all customers supplied by Loughrea Regional Water Supply Scheme that the drinking water is safe to drink and the level of chlorine in the water is carefully monitored and controlled to ensure it is maintained at levels that are not harmful to health.
