Some areas of Greater Manchester have been left without water tonight due to a power cut, United Utilities say. Bottled water stations have been set up for people to collect free bottled water while there is disruption.
United Utilities say the issue was first reported just after 6pm with the cut causing 'technical issues' at a local water treatment works. Therefore some customers in Stockport and Hazel Grove are without running water.
The bottled water stations, at Hazel Grove Park and Ride and High Lane Park, will be open until 10pm tonight and reopen at 8am tomorrow for those needing water supplies. United Utilities say they are doing 'all they can' to get water supplies running in these areas again.
