WATER has been flooding a street for more than 30 hours following a burst pipe.

Residents have reported gushing water on Bath Lane in Fareham which has "flooded an underpass".

The leak comes as the area is still under a hosepipe ban.

One local resident said the amount of water going by is "ridiculous", adding that water has been pouring down the road for more than 30 hours.

Portsmouth Water is aware of the leak, which was reported on Sunday, September 25, at 8.55am.

Its website says: "We are aware that some of our customers in the location above may be experiencing a loss of supply or low water pressure.

"This is due to a burst water main in Bath Lane affecting the water pressures in the area.

"We are sorry for any disruption or inconvenience this matter is causing and thank you for your patience whilst we carry out the repairs."
