Hafren Dyfrdwy said that the work would take place in Montgomery – on Pool Road, Princes Street, and Bishop's Castle Street – during April next year.
In a letter to residents, Catherine Webb, the company’s Community Communications Officer, has apologised for the distress and inconvenience caused by multiple water main bursts in recent years.She said:"The likelihood of more problems occurring increases as the years pass, so we’re going to be replacing the old pipes along these roads, in Montgomery with some brand-new ones.
"This means that there’ll be some short-term inconvenience – but the advantage of having this work take place will be worth it and secure the network for the future." Ms Webb siad that a start date will be confirmed once a traffic management plan has been agreed with Powys County Council.
“so we’re going to be replacing the old pipes along these roads, in Montgomery with some brand-new ones”, who knew they replaced old pipes with other than new ones?
