We’re asking our customers in Birdwood, Gumeracha, Cudlee Creek and Kersbrook to prepare for a temporary interruption to your tap water supply from around 5pm this evening, while we undertake urgent water main repairs.
To plan ahead for this interruption, there are several practical things you can do – put a jug of water in the fridge for drinking and fill a bucket or two with water to flush the toilet or do any light cleaning.
An alternate supply of cask water will be available for collection behind the Gumeracha Library at the local oval on Albert Street in Gumeracha between 5pm and 9pm.
People in Mount Torrens may also temporarily experience reduced water pressure, so we ask our customers in this area to limit your water use where possible to help maintain sufficient supply in the network. Please only use water for essential purposes like drinking and toilet flushing, and hold off using dishwashers and washing machines or filling a pool.
At this stage, we expect to begin gradually restoring supply tomorrow morning.
If you need urgent assistance, please hold the line to speak to one of our team.
