A spokesperson for Severn Trent Water said: "We’d like to apologise to those experiencing poorer pressure or no water supply in the LE7, LE13, LE14 and NG32 area of Melton Mowbray this evening.
This is due to multiple burst water pipes. Our teams are on site working to repair this and restore your water supply as soon as possible.
We are confident the repair will be completed by 8PM. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may be causing. We’ll make sure this page is updated as we receive more information."
