Your water will be back on

We’re really sorry for the problems with your water today. We’ve fixed the burst water main and you’ll see your water flowing back to normal soon.

Due to the traffic conditions, we’ve temporarily closed the road so our team can work safely. We’re really sorry if this causes any disruption to your journeys.

Once it is safe to do so, the road will be back open for you. We’re working hard to get things back to normal for you, but we really appreciate your patience at this time.

Appearance of your water

If your water is discoloured or cloudy, don’t worry this is normal. We know it doesn’t look nice, but it’s not harmful and you can help by running your cold tap until it’s clear. To find out more, please click here.

We updated this message at 14:55 and we'll remove it after 08:00 Sunday 9th February 2025.
