ENGINEERS worked through the night as efforts continue to repair a burst “strategic” water main which left many properties in the southside of Glasgow without water.
Scottish Water said customers in the G41, G42, G43, G44 postcodes were affected by the burst water main, which happened late on Saturday afternoon.
Photos and videos on social media showed flooding on some streets in the area.
Road closures have been put in place as engineers work to carry out repairs, which Scottish Water hopes to complete on Sunday morning.
In a statement Scottish Water said: “Complex valve operations have been completed to re-route water through different parts of our network and bring all customers back into supply, although this may be at reduced pressure.
“Further network adjustments are being carried out in an effort to boost this pressure and restore normal water supplies.”
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this issue and thank affected customers for their patience and understanding while we work to resolve the matter.”
The firm said that as repairs continue, customers may continue to experience low pressure, and/or discoloured water.
It advised people experiencing discoloured water to run their cold kitchen tap at half pressure until it runs clear.
