Burst Pipe Floods Road
RESIDENTS in Clarence Road were surprised to find their road had become a river last week when a late night burst water main brought chaos to the area. Thousands of gallons of water turned into a torrent and flooded cars as well as causing a bank of land to collapse. The incident, which happened at about 11.50pm woke many residents who quickly found the water had reached knee height.
Anglian Water shut down the supply in the early hours of the morning and spent much of the following day repairing the burst main. It is believed that the main was burst by ground movement and Anglian Water apologised to customers for any inconvenience caused.
