Rahoon Road residents warned of possible water outages during maintenance works
Mon, Jun 29, 2026
Uisce Éireann is advising people in the Rahoon Road area of Galway city of possible water outages tonight (Monday) as a result of planned maintenance works in their area.
Residents in Highfield Park and the surrounding areas may experience disruption to their supply between 8pm on Monday night and 8am on Tuesday morning as a result of these overnight works.
The works are planned to finalise the reinstatement of the road surface after the successful repair of a water main in the area last week. Last week’s repairs were needed to repair a main which had been damaged in a major burst in March.
