Up to 1,000 homes and businesses in north Dublin are facing water supply disruptions this morning.
Crews are carrying out urgent repairs to a burst water main which is affecting parts of Malahide's Seabury area.
The burst happened in the Dunard estate late last night, and Fingal County Council says repairs are expected to be completed by 2pm.
