RESIDENTS OF MOUNT Brevitor, St Peter woke up this morning to low water pressure and by afternoon into late evening the taps went dry.
This forced residents to put off plans to wash and cook.
Some gathered cans, buckets and other containers and travelled to standpipes in order to get water.
Residents later said a Barbados Water Authority tanker visited the area around 6:30 p.m.
The BWA recently announced the extension of a prohibition on the use of water for certain purposes because of low water availability.
The August 1 to October 31, 2016 ban prohibits the irrigation or watering of gardens, lawns and grounds; filling or supplying tanks, pond, baths or swimming pools and washing roadways, pavements or vehicles by hose. (RL)
