Supply Interruption Affecting Wigston

Supply Interruption in Wigston

Severn Trent Water has reported a supply interruption affecting the Wigston area. At this time, specific details about which streets or postcodes are affected, and how many households are impacted, have not been provided.

What This Means

A supply interruption means that some residents in the Wigston area may be experiencing a loss of water or reduced water pressure. This type of incident is typically caused by planned maintenance work, an unexpected pipe fault, or a burst main in the local network.

What You Should Do

• Check your taps to see whether your supply has been affected.
• Avoid unnecessary water use until your supply is confirmed as fully restored, if you are without water.
• Do not assume your supply is safe to drink if water returns after an interruption and appears discoloured or cloudy — run your cold kitchen tap for a few minutes and, if in doubt, contact Severn Trent Water directly.
• If you rely on water for medical needs, such as dialysis, contact Severn Trent Water as a priority so they can offer appropriate support.
