Lagness Road North Mundham | For information
As part of our ongoing water main laying works in the Mundham area, our teams are preparing to carry out our final connections at Lagness Road to get the water main up and running to complete the works. This will require the road closure of Brookside at the junction of Lagness Road from Monday 18th to Friday 29th November 2024. We have carefully planned these connection works to cause the least impact on Lagness Road. This means there should be no impact on traffic flows, and no traffic management will be in place for Lagness Road. We are sorry for any inconvenience that this work may cause to local residents and those passing through the area. As always, thank you for your patience and understanding as we carry out our investment in improving the pipe network in the area.

Lagness Road / Marsh Lane / Green Lane / Willowmead Close / Brookside / Pagham Road | Off: 21/11/2024 09:00 | Planned maintenance
We will be undertaking essential maintenance work on the water distribution network which will mean customers' water supplies will be turned off for a maximum period of 7 hours on 21st November commencing at 09:00
Prior to the water supply interruption, we suggest that you draw off and store sufficient tap water for your drinking needs over this period. If your property has a cold-water cistern, it should provide sufficient reserve for your normal sanitary requirements (i.e. lavatory flushing) if used sensibly. Central Heating systems should not be affected by the shutdown.
Slight discoloration of the water may occur when the supply is restored so we would recommend checking that the water is clear before using washing machines or other appliances. We would in any case advise that water using appliances (washing machines, dishwashers etc.) should NOT be used during the shutdown period.
If you do experience any discolouration of the water supply, this is normal following such events and poses no health risk to the water supply system. To address this, we would recommend you run your cold kitchen tap for 10 minutes or until clear. For further guidance about this, please refer to our water quality information page at portsmouthwater.co.uk/water-quality/
We apologise for any noise or inconvenience that our activities may cause you but we will endeavour to keep this to a minimum and thank you for your patience whilst we undertake these essential works.
If your water supply does not return to normal after we restore the supply, please contact us on 023 9247 7999. Our staff are available on this number 24 hrs a day to provide further advice or if necessary, arrange for a company representative or plumber to call. They will rectify any problem which is found to be due to this interruption to supply, free of charge.
