A leak which left 12 Worcester Park properties without water has been fixed.

A four-inch water pipe in Church Road began leaking yesterday, and caused a drop in pressure elsewhere in the road.

One resident described the leak as “major”.

A Thames Water spokesman said it was fixed by an engineering team earlier this afternoon.

Another leak has sprung up, however, in Church Street in Kingston town centre, which the company plans to attend outside of rush hour today.

- An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified the location of the first leak as Church Road, KT1.
