Pleases call 222 0600 to arrange for a tanker to call to the elderly or those most at need. ( They will be available depending on demand ).

Both mobile & stationary tankers will need to be replenished and therefore may need to leave the area for a short time, your co-operation and patience is greatly appreciated

Although many people have water back to their taps, the situation is still critical. The Water Division would ask people to exercise restraint and conserve their use of water at this time.

We would like to thank people for their patience and cooperation and we would ask that people report locations where they see water running/rising to the contacts given below.

It has come to our attention that bogus callers may be utilising the current water problems to gain access to houses. If a member of Dublin City Council calls to a property they will always carry and produce identification. If the caller asks you to check the flow of water at the taps, close the door fully while you do so. If you are in any doubt do not allow access.
