Discoloured water affecting properties around Dudley
Residents in some parts of Dudley and across the Black Country are having issues with discoloured water.
South Staffs Water have announced of discolouration in B32, B64, DY3 and DY5 areas, and that they are working to resolve it.
They said in a tweet: "We're aware of an issue affecting customers in Halesowen, Kingswinford, Lower and Upper Gornal and some areas of Dudley.
"We're working to resolve this and will provide updates in due course. Sorry for any inconvenience caused."
One user on Twitter described the water as "milky."
Nathan Harper, head of network operations at South Staffs Water, said: "We're aware of an issue affecting customers in Halesowen, Kingswinford, Lower and Upper Gornal, which is causing discolouration. We're working to resolve this as soon as possible and thank customers for their patience."
South Staffs Water also confirmed that the discolouring issue is unrelated to the reservoir levels that have been experienced as a result of the recent hot weather and increased demand.
