SOME HOMES in Kidderminster are still without water after a burst water mains on Friday (June 27).
Severn Trent, the water operator, says its teams are working hard in the area to sort out the situation.
Several streets were flooded following the incident in Green Street and Worcestershire Highways carried out an emergency road closure in Punp Street. Other roads were also affected, including Green Street, Castle Road, Dixon Street and The Ringway.
And, while the water has been cleared, there are still supply issues in the area.
Severn Trent engineers have been on the scene since Friday afternoon when the mains burst happened.
It led to properties losing their supply and some still have no water. Poor pressure and discoloured water.
A Severn Trent spokesperson said: “We’d like to apologise to those no supply, poor pressure or discoloured water supply in the DY10 and DY11 of Kidderminster.
“Our teams are on site working to repair this as soon as possible.
“Whilst the repair continues, we also have teams in the area working to restore the water supply by moving water around our network.
“As a result, you may experience lower water pressure and/or discoloured water as the supply returns.
“This is nothing to worry about and as our works progress your water supply will return to normal.
“We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may be causing and thank you for your patience during this time.
“We’ll make sure this page is updated as we receive more information.”
