The safety and wellbeing of our staff and our customers is of the utmost importance to us and we have been able to implement the necessary extra precautions to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The current water mains, which date back to the 1960’s, have now reached the end of their operational life. The new water mains will provide secure safe and reliable drinking water supplies for homes and businesses.
The project involves laying approximately 262m of new main along Orchard Drive and approximately 60m of new main in Orchard Close.
Our Keeping your water flowing booklet explains the four stages needed to lay a water main and answers some key questions you may have.
