URGENT repair works to fix a water leak are being carried out in the centre of Bishopsteignton today.

Workmen from South West Water warned some residents that their water supplies might be disrupted during the works.

A spokesman for the company said the fixing project could take up to six hours but they hope to restore all water by 12.30pm.

‘We would like to thank you for your patience and apologise for any inconvenience caused,’ the spokesman added.
