Limerick City council has announced that a rotating stand pipe operator will be operated from Friday to provide water to those who have been affected by burst water pipes or low water pressure due to the current weather conditions.
“Some service pipes are still frozen and may have to await a rise in temperatures before resumption of normal supply. This is compounded in some areas by consumers constantly running taps during the frosty conditions,” the council said in a statement Thursday night.
Limerick City Council says they will supply a rotating stand pipe operator to provide water to those without water who wish to collect it in containers. The water will need to be boiled before use.
This operation will commence from 9.00am on Friday morning from a number of locations around the city including Thomond Park, Parc Na Gael, Clarion Suites, Scoile Ide, Parkway Shopping Centre, the Greyhound Stadium, Caledonian Park and Mary Immaculate College.
Details of what times the water will be available at these locations can be found on the Limerick City Council Website.
