Uisce Éireann have posted a notice that a Laois town will be without water for part of this week.

The Downs area of Portlaoise will undergo mains repairs, meaning that there may be water disruptions to Portlaoise Retail Park and surrounding areas.

Works are scheduled to take place from 10am until 3pm on Wednesday, April 30.

These works may affect the opening hours of some businesses within the retail park.

Costa Coffee in Portlaoise Retail Park have confirmed with the Leinster Express / Laois Live that they will remain open, yet they will not have bathroom facilities available.

"We recommend that you allow 3-4 hours after the estimated restoration time for your supply to fully return," Uisce Éireann said in their announcement.
For more updates on the water disruption, Uisce Éireann advise you search the reference number LAO00092307 on their website.
