Water returns in Livingston following day-long outage due to burst pipe

The burst pipe also caused major flooding.

Water has returned to homes in Livingston after a day-long outage due to a burst pipe.

Scottish Water reported a problem with the water supply around 8.30am on Sunday.

The cause of the disruption was found to be a burst water main, which also caused major flooding on Cousland Road.

The burst pipe called major flooding.

The road was closed and West Lothian Police were called out to assist with redirecting traffic.

Water returned to most properties around 4.30pm, but due to 'complications on-site' with repairs some were still without water at 8.30pm.

Scottish Water reported this morning that the issue has been resolved and water has returned to all properties.
