NEARLY 20 homes will be cut off from their water supply after workers hit a water main in the centre of town.

A Hampshire Highways truck hit the water pipe on Wednesday, June 18, during works to install a new bollard.

According to Southern Water (SW), the pipe hit was a "four-inch wide water pipe", and "around 19 homes will be impacted when we shut off the water main to carry out repairs."



AN SW spokesperson said: "A vehicle damaged our water main and our teams will be at Andover High Street carrying out essential repairs.

“Due to the nature of the repairs to the water main, there will be a short period where 19 homes will be without water.

“We’re very sorry for the disruption and inconvenience this is causing.”
