⚠️WATER OUTAGE UPDATE – KARAKA BAY⚠️
Our crews have been responding to a water main burst on Fortification Street in Karaka Bay affecting water supply to Fortification Road, Glenville Road and 130-156 Nevay Road.
Water is now expected water to be back up by 3.30pm.
When the water supply is back on, it’s a good idea for residents to open a cold tap slowly then let it run for a minute or so to clear any air bubbles that may have entered the system. Air can cause the water to turn a milky colour, but this won’t affect the taste, and should clear quickly. If the water has not cleared after 15 minutes or so, please call your local council and let them know.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused.
