The "so quick" part has taken 6 years to get to this point. Its all in the above thread.

Does the West End have water now?

Does the West End have water now?

Yes it does! ShuffleShoes brought up an old post. Water had been back by late May/June. Beryl stopped it again but that is expected.

From all the talk about the lack of water, the NWC (water company) has been receiving videos of any leaks, bursts and wasting of water nearly immediately.

Since they have cleared or replaced the most offending pipes, I have never seen the water pressure stronger on the West End.
