IRISH Water has identified the reason many people’s water supply in Limerick was off-colour for the last day.
Scores of homes in Raheen, Dooradoyle, Patrickswell and its surrounds had seen the water running off their taps appearing as a murky shade.
Fine Gael councillor Olivia O’Sullivan also reported today that the water was running that colour in Coonagh, Bellfield, Farranshone and the Old Cratloe Road on the city’s northside.
I’ve had reports of water discolouration from #Coonagh residents this morning. The issue is reported to @IWCare and the Council. If anyone else on the northside is having issues please let me know or report directly to @IWCare 1850 278 278 #IWLimerickpic.twitter.com/sUZj6KVDOe

Irish Water and Mayo County Council are embarking on a significant project to replace approximately four kilometres of cast iron water mains which will improve the quality of drinking water supplied to customers in the Currower and surrounding areas of Ballina.
The mains are being replaced with new high density polyethylene (plastic) pipes along the L5363 through Breaffy and L1323 through Currower. The works are due to commence next week and will be completed in September. Once completed customers in this area will enjoy an improved water supply.
