Supplies were also affected in the Rectory Road area, but residents reported that the water was turned back on just as we were trying to find out what had happened.
South East Water, which is responsible for water in Wokingham, were carrying out repairs and, to ensure that it was carried out without a problem, had to close the supplies down for a short time.
Speaking to The Wokingham Paper, South East Water’s regional network manager Steve Benton said: “We had a small leak on a connection pipe and had to shut a section of our network while we carried out the repair.
“This took just over half an hour to complete and all supplies should now have returned to normal.”
