ROAD repairs following a burst water main in Ambrosden, near Bicester, will last into next week.

Thames Water engineers are now re-tarmacing Ploughley Road and said they hope have it fully reopen by early next week.

Temporary traffic lights are in place for the works.

The water leak yesterday left Five Acres Primary School and 750 homes in Ambrosden without water.

Thames Water said it had fully restored supplies to all those properties by 9pm last night but some customers may still have low pressure today.
