There has been an attack of brown water in the Belstead Avenue area and the “surrounding streets”. It is due to a fire hydrant being used in the area about an hour ago and disturbing the sediment and putting some iron in the water. Anglian Water have said that the water is safe to use. It should all be back clear the morning.

If you want to contact Anglian Water their telephone number is 08457 145 145 and the website is https://www.anglianwater.co.uk/household/water-quality/self-diagnosis/index.aspx

Thanks to Waterfront Action, there’s a schedule of the roadworks planned in Ipswich on the internet in once place (pdf).  Here are the details in Bridge:

I’m just saying. I haven’t had it for a couple of weeks and now it’s overpowering. Like the noise it also seems to be coming from Cliff Quay.

If anyone is also getting it there are two useful numbers:

Environment Agency 0800 807060 (Freephone)
Anglian Water 08457 91 91 55
Ipswich Borough Council Environmental Health 01473 433115

Be aware that they may want to send someone round to your house.
