WATER was being restored to a number of areas in Cork city yesterday and last night council officials said that all but 8,000 homes would have their supply restored by early this evening.

All but 8,000 homes to have water supply restored by this evening

The areas which have already had their supply turned on include Lee Road, Sunday’s Well Road, North Mall, Shandon Street, Great William O’Brien Street, Watercourse Road, Thomas Davis Street, Commons Road to the junction with Popham’s Road, and Blarney Street.

City Council officials said that some of those areas had their supplies served from the water reservoir in Shanakiel and, as each reservoir and pumping station came on stream after last week’s flooding, more homes and businesses would see their supply restored over the weekend.
