Water collection point set up amid Seaton shortage

Those still affected by water supply disruption in Seaton can collect free bottled water this morning.

South West Water has set up a water collection point at the Jurassic long stay car park on the Underfleet, Seaton, open from 9.30am today (Tuesday).

In the meantime, they are still working to fully restore supplies.

Some household say their water is now running again, while others say they have now been without for more than 60 hours.

South West Water will be offering payouts to those affected for 12 hours or more by the mass outage.

Axminster and Honiton were also affected by the issue, which started on Friday, with neighbouring Ottery St Mary and Lyme Regis both reporting further water disruptions yesterday.
