Offaly Crisis Management Team wish to reaffirm its appeal for everyone to exercise extreme caution when travelling on the public roads. Many of these routes still have fallen trees, loose power cables and fallen debris.

The clean-up operation is well underway and will take a number of days to complete. As a result of issues pertaining to ESB and Eir Networks the following routes still remain closed;

  • Coolderry at the GAA field
  • Local road off the N62 Gloster over to Brosna Village

 

Offaly County Council in collaboration with Irish Water are currently experiencing water shortages in the following areas; Shinrone, Mountbolus, Walsh Island, Tubberdaly.

Normal service is expected to return later today to these areas. Water supply to Rhode will return as electrical power is restored.

Water Services are addressing wastewater issues as they arise and tankering of wastewater is organised where power has been disrupted.
