The connection of a major new pipeline for north county Dublin has been completed.
Uisce Éireann, in partnership with Fingal County Council, is now progressing to the final phase of the construction process for the new pipeline between Ballycoolin Reservoir and Swords.
It will secure the water supply for over 350,000 customers across North County Dublin.
In order to safely connect the new pipeline to the existing water network, a planned outage took place on Sunday last, resulting in some disruption to customers.
William McKnight from Uisce Éireann thanked all those affected for their patience and water conservation efforts.
"This is a hugely important project for the people of North County Dublin and for the wider Greater Dublin Area in terms of delivering a sufficient and sustainable water supply to all," he said.
"I would like to thank our specialist water crews in GMC Utilities Group Ltd and Fingal County Council who worked throughout the night to limit the impact on customers and successfully complete this major piece of infrastructure work."
The project is being carried out by GMC Utilities Group Ltd on behalf of Uisce Éireann, in partnership with Fingal County Council.
Uisce Éireann is responsible for the delivery of all public water and wastewater services in Ireland.
