No water
We're sorry if you have no water. There is a burst water main on Stort Road and our technician has had to shut the main for repairs to be completed.
What we’re doing
Our repair team have stayed on Stort Road and are awaiting the arrival of UK Power Network before works can continue. As soon as we know how much longer this will take, we’ll let you know.
What you can do
Until we’ve sorted this, please avoid using your:
- Washing machine
- Dishwasher
- Electrical appliances that use water
If you still have water, we recommend you put some in your kettle or fridge for drinking in case your water needs switching off for the repair.
We’re really sorry about this, we’re working to get your water back to normal as soon as possible.
We updated this message at 23:10 and we'll update it again after 01:10
