The leader of Wandsworth Council has written to Thames Water to express his frustration at the ongoing works on the high street

Simon Hogg says that he is disappointed the works have been extended for another week, despite the commitment to finish by 8th November.

The delays have already resulted in significant traffic chaos, as well as low or no water pressure for residents.

He also adds that it is unacceptable that people are having to rely on bottled water deliveries, and only being compensated up to £60 a day.
