Residents have been left with intermittent water supplies after a water pipe burst and flooded streets.
Streets around Hyde Road and Far Lane in Gorton, Manchester, were flooded earlier.
United Utilities said water tanks had been sent to the area to keep taps flowing and apologised for the inconvenience caused.
Gorton councillor Julie Reid tweeted that the pipe bursting had emptied Debdale reservoir .
Engineers isolated the burst water pipe by about 12:00 GMT and the flow of water should start to clear, United Utilities said.
The firm said workers were continuing to repair the pipe and asses the damage and residents may see some discolouration of water.
