The leak was finally fixed last Friday
A water leak in a South Manchester street has taken 10 weeks to fix. The leak on Barlow Moor Road, between Linden Road and Elm Road in Didsbury, was first reported on July 8, according to one local councillor.
But the Local Democracy Reporting Service understands that the town hall only received the application for a permit from United Utilities last week. Didsbury West councillor John Leech said the delay was 'not acceptable'.He said: "They have no justification for leaving it 10 weeks before fixing it. I think it reflects very badly on water companies that they think it's acceptable to leave a leak for that length of time.
A spokesperson for United Utilities confirmed that the repairs to the leak on Barlow Moor Road were carried out on September 16 and completed that day. The water company apologised for any inconvenience caused, but explained that the location of the leak meant that permits were required to do the work.
