WATER has been flowing for a few weeks now, from the traffic lights junction of Castle Street/ Chesterway and across Navigation Road, and as of writing this, is almost a stream.
People are walking/cycling and driving through this water and are, perhaps, unaware that this is known in the trade as ‘brown water’, in other words...effluent.
This has been happening quite regularly for around five weeks now, and there was a previous occurrence of this last year.
United Utilities and CWAC are both aware of this, but seem unable to solve the problem.
So please, residents of Northwich, disinfect your footwear, wheelchairs, prams/buggies, dogs paws, bicycles and car tyres after you return home.
And bear this in mind when United Utilities send you your next bill.
