Water supplies restored in Deerness

Water supplies have been restored in Deerness, following repairs to a burst main today.

According to Scottish Water, the network is recharging and water supply should be back to normal shortly.

The burst main was located around 8.30am this morning, with repairs completed this afternoon.

As supplies fully restore customers may experience some discolouration to their water – to clear this, household should run the cold water kitchen tap at half pressure until the stream runs clear.

Anyone needing further assistance is asked to call 08000 778 778.
