Update: 3pm, 21 May
We experienced a significant rising main burst on our wastewater network on Bradford Road, Cleckheaton, BD19.
The pipe carries wastewater to our treatment works, which means it’s particularly deep in the ground and it has been a complex fix. The pipe is currently shut off and we’re pumping the wastewater to the treatment works instead.
To reduce risk of any repeat issues, we’ve carried out some additional investigations and have started a second repair a little bit further down the pipe. To keep everyone safe while we work, we have had to put a one-way closure in place. We will reopen the road as soon as possible.
Businesses on Bradford Road remain open as normal.
Thank you for bearing with us while we get everything back to normal.
