Following the spectacular scenes at Holy Corner yesterday evening when a water hydrant burst, Scottish Water have told us what is happening there this morning.
Bottled water is being made available to customers affected by disruption to normal supplies in the Bruntsfield area of Edinburgh.
Scottish Water has been working to restore supplies to following damage to a fire hydrant at Holy Corner yesterday evening. A backfeed was put in place to provide customers with an alternative supply, and a squad completed the repair overnight.
Unfortunately when the water main was then re-opened a valve broke, requiring a further repair. As a result some customers are still experiencing disruption to supply. We are working to restore supplies as quickly as possible and in the meantime bottled water can be collected from the Admiralty Terrace entrance to Boroughmuir High School.
