IMPORTANT
Picton, Waikawa and Koromiko residents are being asked to conserve water on Wednesday while the Marlborough District Council carries out work on the public water supply.
A council spokeswoman said residents in those areas should not use garden irrigation and should minimise household use of water.
Engineers will install a new electrical mains cable at the water treatment plant at Speeds Rd, which means the pump supplying the towns will be switched off for the day.
Water supply to residents will be restricted to what is stored in the town reservoirs.
