We still had no power when I left for work at 7.15am. Water pressure was extremely low.

Both off at ours, I heard a bang but thought the wind had knocked the bins over.

Re: Pike Hill - Water gone and Power out
It looks as though there was a gas explosion on Brownside Road just before the bridge and an electricity sub station explosion on Buttermere Ave. I think it’s safe to say these events are the reason for loss of power and water.

Fire at a substation and power hopefully back by 230pm according to LET. Affecting BB10 area and 500 homes

Re: Pike Hill - Water gone and Power out
Panic buying bog roll and pasta is one think but buying up all the water and electricity is well out of order

There was an explosion and fire at a substation near Brownside bridge last night. Fire was put out around 5.30 but power is still off in some parts of Worsthorne, others have no water.

Re: Pike Hill - Water gone and Power out
I hear there's been a big fire in the factory units down Brun Terrace Brownside around 2am. Whether that had anything to do with the utility problems.
