Severn Trent Water said tankers were located on Crossings Road in Chapel-en-le-Frith where a three-way traffic light system has been set up at the junction of Crossings Road and Manchester Road to safeguard pedestrians and their workers.

The company said this morning that customers in the affected areas may find they have no water or lower water pressure than normal, and tankers were being brought in to keep customers on supply.

They added: "We’d like to apologise for any inconvenience this may be causing."
