Residents of East Leeds 'left without water' as burst water main floods Harehills

A report of low water pressure and loss of water was posted by Yorkshire Water on their live map shortly before 8pm.

The report stated: "We're really sorry but customers may have low pressure or no water in the area.

"We're investigating the problem urgently.

"Once restored, water may be cloudy or discoloured, this will return to normal shortly after and you can help clear this by running your tap for a few minutes."

Yorkshire Water said they "are aware of the issue and would like to apologise for the inconvenience caused".

Residents took to Twitter to ask Yorkshire Water for help - with many saying they had no water from their taps on Wednesday night.

One said: "We have no water at all, what can we do?"

Another added: "My supply has completely stopped.

"The street outside has flooded."

Yorkshire Water later tweeted an update: "We are aware of an issue in #MarkhamAvenue this evening, and we have our teams on the way to investigate this, as we have more details, we will keep you updated.
