Pipes are being flushed out in a Surrey village as more than 600 households are told not to drink water from the taps.
Thames Water issued what it describes as a 'precautionary' advice on Thursday after unsafe levels of hydrocarbons were discovered.
Tess Fayers from Thames Water said, "We are asking 616 Bramley properties not to drink the tap water following recent water sampling results. "We are in the process of delivering letters and bottled water to the affected properties. We are also identifying locations to set-up bottled water stations and we will share this information with our customers as soon as possible."We are already on site in the village proactively replacing sections of our pipes on Horsham Road to reduce the risk to our customers."
A Waverley Borough Council spokesperson said, "We are working closely with Thames Water and other agencies to try and mitigate the impact on residents, and we will support residents wherever possible."
