The Mardyke Walk in Cork will be closed to vehicular traffic until the end of the month for essential upgrades of the water supply network in the area.
Irish Water said the scheme, on the road close to the city’s Fitzgerald Park and UCC’s Mardyke Arena, may impact on the water supply to homes and businesses in the area, with a risk of reduced water pressure and water outages.
