The flood water from Monday’s burst pipe on the North Circular has now been cleared and we’ve begun our repairs.

The eastbound carriageway has been reopened, although it will need to be closed again overnight to allow more work to be carried out.

The westbound carriageway is unfortunately likely to remain shut for some time as we carry out ongoing repairs.

Fixing the pipe is likely to be a complicated job, especially as it’s positioned close to other utilities. There’s also significant damage to the road surface.

We managed to restore supplies quickly yesterday, but we apologise if your water was affected. And we’re very sorry to drivers whose journeys were delayed or who’ll need to take a different route as a result of our work.

We’ll work as quickly as possible, in liaison with Transport for London, to get things back to normal as soon as possible. Thank you in the meantime for your patience.

We’ll provide updates here once we have more information.
