They explained: “This is being caused by a burst water main.”

Engineers had expected to have it fixed by 12noon but in an update they have said: “We’ve had to extend the time to get things back to normal because it's proving more complicated to fix than we first expected. Our team on the ground is working as fast as they can to get things sorted.”

The new estimated time for water supply to be restored is 4pm.

If the supply is interrupted for a prolonged period Angilan Water will take action including providing alternative water supplies and paying compensation.
