Leeds Saxton Gardens apartments entering third day without running water

The popular city centre apartments are reported to have been without water since lunch time on Wednesday.

Residents have been provided with a small water tank in the car park, 400 meters away from some of the apartments but those currently isolating due to Covid-19 or unable to carry water are unable to access it.

The issue was confirmed by Yorkshire Water who said it is a private issue for the company managing the block of flats, with the testing of the main line fine up to the boundary edge

In a statement provided to the YEP, a Yorkshire Water spokesperson said: “Our team has checked mains pressures at Saxton Gardens and found no issues that would cause a loss of supply to the properties.”

The apartments are managed by Urban Splash who have been approached for comment.
