Water Chaos at Rush Hour
A WATER leak that "caused chaos" during the morning rush hour in Edgware was fixed the same day, a utility company said.
The pipe at the junction of Whitchurch Lane and Marsh Lane is believed to have split at 4am on Friday morning.
A firefighter from Stanmore Fire Station said at the time: "It's causing chaos. The road is closed off, with traffic being diverted. The water is still pouring out."
A spokeswoman for Veolia Water Three Valleys said: "We repaired the bursts on Friday and reinstated the road so it was open to traffic later that day.
"A nearby footpath was also repaired over the weekend and a private verge damaged by one of the bursts is due to be repaired later this week.
"The company would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused by this incident."
