No Water in Nw3 Nw6 West Hampstead or Finchley
If you live in West Hampstead or around Finchley Road NW3 or NW6 from 2013 onwards you may from time to time find you have no water.
Thames Water are under going an upgrade of the existing mains supply pipes. This is expected to be completed by the shocking date of 2025. In the mean time no surprises if there are intermittent issues.
In The first half of 2013 there were 200 leaks on water mains in West Hampstead and at least 3 interruptions in supply that I am aware of.
Interruptions in supply may result in intermittent slower flow rates, as well as no flow situations, as large volumes will retain some pressure for variable periods of time depending on volume and time of day.
