RESIDENTS are being urged to help cut back on leaks and bursts by calling the Three Valleys Leakspotters hotline on 0800 376 5325.
Ms Jo Parker, who is responsible for the water company's leakage detection programme, said: "It's important to us to ensure that we get leaks fixed as quickly as possible, especially during cold winter spells.
"With a complicated network of underground water mains, measuring some 14,000 kilometres almost the distance from England to Australia there's plenty for us to do and we need all the help we can get."
