Along with my Ward Colleagues, Councillors Andrew Lee and Alexa Michael, we have written to Thames Water to challenge the utility supplier on the number of burst pipes in the area, especially on Hayes Lane. There have been two burst pipes in Hayes Lane since May 2022.
I have also submitted a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the organisation to find out the impact of these burst pipes on water waste and bills over the last few years. Read the FOI and the responses at: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/water_waste_in_hayes_london_boro
We are acting after a burst on Hayes Lane in May which saw a driveway destroyed and some residents’ homes flooded. There was another, smaller water leak on 19th June, also in Hayes Lane.
