    Water outage, Celbridge. 06/04/12 @ 08.14

    By fireservices | Published: 06/04/2012
    Celbridge is still without water this morning. Engineers have been informed and are out working on same. Supply is expected to return during early part of today.

    They are complete liars. Last night I explained to them that judging by the times that this is a completely different problem to Maynooth. I was told that its not, its the same problem and once the resivor filled up everything would be back to normal. I even asked them about the leak that was found in the mains for Celbridge 3 days ago and they said that's been sorted and won't be a problem. I'm turning into.such a busybody but it has to be done.

    Conflicting Reports On Celbridge Water Woes 2012-04-06 09:58:22
    Confusion abounds as to the state of water supply in Celbridge.

    Parts of the town, including Straffan, have been without water since yesterday morning, following the rupturing of a primary watermain.

    Kildare County Council stated at 4 O'clock yesterday afternoon that the problem had been resolved.

    However, this morning, a large number of homes in Straffan and in Celbridge proper remain without water

    KCC published an alert on second water supply problem in the town at 8.14 this morning, but says it is now resolved.

    Not so, according to the people of Celbridge:cool:

    My tank has been filling up for the last 2 and a half hours, it was completely empty though. I still think it should be full by now so I don't know what's going on.

    They say that all areas should have water by 11:50 but there are still people without it. I don't have a clue what is going on at this stage.

    Water stayed on in my part of Celbridge, although we're near where the water comes down from the tanks. A friend I know in Celbridge started getting some pressure back around 11am this morning.

    I rang them a half an hour ago. Some parts of Oldtown Mill still have no water at all. I think we are the very end of the pipeline.
    But we are near the front of the estate and I'm fully back, tank full, water in all taps.

    I used to live in Oldtown Mill, last estate to get water in Celbridge every time. You're right, it is end of the line :)

    Make sure to check your kitchen cold tap (which is on the mains, not the tank) just in case you got an airlock due to emptying the main tank.

    Spent a good 50 minutes earlier today clearing one here...
