Water pressure should be returning to normal at tens of thousands of properties across Dublin following repairs to a major main, but those affected by the issue are being advised to let their taps run to flush out any discolouration

“It’s not that it’s not safe to drink, but it’s not very pleasant to drink. So you run your tap and that should clear it. It should be very localised,” Ms Attridge added.
