Thousands of residents in south London are dealing with water supply issues due to burst pipes, prompting Thames Water to set up a bottled water station for affected households. The company is apologizing for previous incidents that disrupted service and advised residents to expect cloudy or bubbly water once supplies resume. Local MPs are calling for a swift resolution and better communication from Thames Water as many residents express frustration over the service disruption, especially those unable to perform basic hygiene tasks like flushing toilets.
Thames Water is providing bottled water to thousands of Londoners affected by burst pipes, which have left them without supplies for two days.
Residents are encouraged to collect bottled water from a designated Sainsbury's location, after a previous site was shut down due to a security incident.
Local MPs have criticized Thames Water for its inadequate response, with one demanding urgent updates after receiving insufficient communication from the company.
Affected customers may experience cloudy water upon supply restoration, attributed to trapped air in the pipes, assuring that it remains safe to consume.
