OX16 & OX17 - North Bar Street

No water or low pressure

Last updated:


We’re currently dealing with a burst pipe on North Bar Street, OX16. This may be causing low water pressure or a temporary loss of supply in your area. We’re really sorry if your taps aren’t running as they should.

Our team has already brought the flow under control, and a specialist repair crew is on the way. Once on site, they’ll dig down to the damaged section and assess the best way to complete the repair safely.

In the meantime, we’ve rerouted water through other parts of the network to restore supply. Your water should be back on shortly, though it may take a couple of hours for pressure to return to normal, depending on your location.

We know how disruptive it is if you lose your water supply, so we'll work hard to get things back to normal as soon as we can.

If you or someone you know needs a little extra support, our free Priority Services Register can help us to understand your situation so we can take it into account as best we can.

We’ll share another update by 5pm. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we put things right.
