UPDATE: Water supply back on after mains burst
4:43pm Sunday 18th May 2008
THOUSANDS of households across south Manchester were left without water this morning after a mains pipe burst.
United Utilities engineers were working on Sunday to fix the pipe on Joseph Glebe Road, Stretford, which ruptured at about 0615 BST.
It left homes in Stretford, Altrincham, Sale and Timperley without water.
United Utilities said it had re-routed supplies from another source to fix the problem and the supply was now back to normal.
This latest problem comes just days after a mains pipe burst in Brooklands Road, Sale.
