A significant water main burst has left thousands of homes in Thames Ditton, Esher, and surrounding areas without water or experiencing low pressure. The incident, reported early in the morning, has led to the closure of local schools and prompted Thames Water to mobilize its teams to address the situation.
Thames Water has acknowledged the disruption and is working to restore service, with updates indicating that some areas may see water return soon, albeit at reduced pressure. The company plans to provide bottled water to vulnerable residents affected by the outage.
Residents should prepare for potential ongoing disruptions as Thames Water works to restore full service. Keep an eye on local updates for bottled water distribution points and be mindful of vulnerable neighbors who may need assistance during this outage.
