It should be functional again at 9 o'clock tonight.

The Tralee Regional Supply Scheme burst is affecting roughly 25,000 customers in Tralee town, Ballinorig, Killeeen Wood, Lisloose, Fenit, Barrow, and the surrounding areas.

Water tanks have already been put in place to supply both Tralee hospitals, while other vulnerable customers have been offered other assistance.
