Efforts are continuing to fix a burst water main that has knocked out water supplies in some parts of Waterford City Centre.

The Council says it could be tonight before water returned to some areas

Crews have been working since early this morning after the mains pipe, which is the main city centre supply, burst.

Claire Hartley from Waterford Council says they are doing everything they can to fix the problem.

Supplies have returned to some areas already.

The Granville Hotel on the Quay is one of those whose supplies have been affected.    Waterford City Fire Service have come to their aid filling
their water tanks and allowing them to remain open.
