Bathing restrictions have been lifted at Kilkee beach.

The ban was originally put in place last Wednesday due to a malfunction in a local pumping station which led to a discharge of wastewater into a stream.

However, it was then extended into this week after heavy rains over the weekend led to the possibility of increased levels of bacteria in the bathing water.
