Part of a busy Manchester road has been closed off while engineers repair a burst water main. Chorlton Road, in Hulme, appeared like a 'river' in the early hours of Sunday morning (February 2) following the burst.
The road has been closed heading towards the city centre, between Jackson Crescent and the Chester Road roundabout, since around 3.30am. United Utilities confirmed that the burst had led to residents in the area having no water or low water pressure.
A spokesperson for United Utilities said: "We're on with it and our team will be in the area as soon as possible to get this fixed. Thank you for your patience, we hope to have things back to normal as soon as possible."
