Engineers remain at the scene of a burst water pipe in Shrewsbury.

Severn Trent Water became aware of the incident on Preston Gubbals Road, SY4 just after 1am this morning (September 2)., which has caused no supply, poor pressure or discoloured water to some properties.

As of 6pm, engineers remain at the scene.

In a statement, the water supplier said: “Following on from our previous update, we’re really sorry if you’re still experiencing no supply, poor pressure or discoloured water due to the burst water pipe on Preston Gubbals Road.

“Our teams are working hard to get your water flowing again, but the repair is taking us a little longer than we first anticipated. We will provide you with a further update by 10pm.

“Apologies for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.”
