Bridgnorth homes lose water supply after burst pipe
Homes in Bridgnorth have been left without water after a burst pipe in the area.
Severn Trent Water were on the scene at Rhea Hall Estate, Highley, to try and fix the problem and get supply back. It is not know exactly how many homes have lost water.
"We hope to have things back to normal by early this afternoon.
"When your water supply is restored it may be discoloured or aerated. Although unappealing, we have no reason to believe there is any risk to your health, however we understand that whilst the supply is discoloured you may choose not to drink the water.
"To help us as well as yourself in resolving this problem we would advise that you run the first mains fed cold water tap in your house, normally at the kitchen sink, at a gentle rate for up to 20 minutes. If the supply is not clear then turn off the tap for 20 minutes and then repeat the process, you may need to do this several times before the supply is clear."
