Scottish Water's engineers have completed repairing a burst water main that was disrupting water supplies to homes in St Monans, Kilconquhar, Elie, Earlsferry and nearby areas. 

Fifers should see their water supplies return to normal over the next few hours though some may still experience no water supply or low water pressure until the network fully recovers.

Burst pipe next to A917

A Scottish Water spokesperson said: “Following reports of loss of supply this morning, teams responded quickly to identify a burst on a 9-inch water pipe in a field next to the A917 between St Monans and Pittenweem and managed to complete repair by around 1pm this afternoon.

"All traffic management has been removed and the road is now fully open.

"We apologise for any inconvenience and would like to thank customers and road users for their patience while these works were carried out.”
