Leak fixed

The roadworks on Badminton Road in Coalpit Heath were worth the temporary inconvenience. The South Glos team traced the leak to a Bristol Water pipe and the water company has now repaired the leak and reinstated the road.

Finding the leak

In this case, a water leak in Badminton Road, Coalpit Heath. Traffic lights are in place so the road can be dug up to find the source of water which has been pouring down the road for some months now. Inevitably this is causing some delays but it's important the problem is fixed as it is beginning to damage the road.
