Yesterday (Friday, June 27), Severn Trent apologised to customers in the TF2 postcode area of Telford (which includes Oakengates, Priorslee, St. Georges, Donnington, Wrockwardine Wood, and Muxton) who experienced no supply, poor pressure or discoloured water.
Issues were caused by a burst water pipe on Fenns Cresent.
