What happens next
- We may need to turn off your water supply. If we do, we will send you further information at least 48 hours in advance, detailing the dates and times that your supply will be affected and what to do.
- During the works you may experience a change in water pressure and/or discoloured water. If this happens don’t be alarmed, turn on the cold water tap in your kitchen, let the water flow slowly until it runs clear.
- There will be roadworks during the dates above. This will include the use of temporary traffic lights, footpath closures, and some access and parking restrictions. Please follow all signs put in place.
