According to a statement released by Irish Water, traffic management will be in place to facilitate the safe delivery of the works, with local and emergency traffic being maintained at all times.
Irish Water and Dublin City Council have reconfigured the network to maintain normal supply to as many properties as possible.
However, customers in the following locations may be impacted on by lower water pressure for the duration of the works – Killeen Road, Kylemore Park, Bluebell Avenue, Park West and surrounding areas.
According to Irish Water, while ‘every effort has been made to minimise the impact of the works’ a small number of properties in these areas may experience water outages for short periods during the day.
Speaking about the works, Matthew Thomson, Irish Water said: “We understand that this type of work can be inconvenient and working in partnership with Dublin City Council we will make every effort to minimise any disruption that these necessary works may cause.
“The delivery of these essential works will help to safeguard the water supply to homes and businesses in the area ensuring a safer mores sustainable water supply.”
Irish Water said these are essential works and are being delivered in adherence with current HSE and government Covid-19 advice.
