In its latest update, the company said its teams were investigating this problem.

It said: "We're really sorry but customers may have low pressure or no water because of a burst water main.

"We're working hard to get your water supply back to normal as soon as possible. Once it's fixed, your water may be cloudy or discoloured - you can clear this by running your tap for a few minutes."

Meanwhile, residents living in the Adel area of the LS16 postcode have reported issues with no water or low pressure.

Yorkshire Water said: "We're aware of the issue and would like to apologise for the inconvenience caused."
