Ballina Shire Council wishes to advise Alstonville residents that their water supply has now been restored.
The temporary water disruption was the result of a water main break on Ballina Road in the Alstonville CBD. The issue has now been rectified and water services have been restored.
Ballina Road eastbound lane is being repaired and will soon be reopened.
Council apologises for the inconvenience and thanks the Alstonville community for their patience and understanding during this unplanned event.
After a water disruption the community is reminded:
- When water returns it may be discoloured. This is due to sediment. Please run the tap until your water runs clear.
- Your water may appear milky. This is caused by small air bubbles. Don’t be alarmed it is not harmful, and will settle in a short period.
- During any future water disruption it’s important to leave your taps off as the water may return at any time.
If you have any enquiries in regard to this matter please contact council’s Water and Wastewater Section on 1300 864 444.
