Homes evacuated after burst main
A number of homes in Hull were evacuated because of a burst water main which caused flooding.
About a dozen residents in Bethnal Green and Beverley Road were forced to leave their properties on Thursday.
Police said Clough Road, Bethnal Green and parts of Cottingham Road and Haywood Street had flooded. Police and the fire service were in attendance.
Clough Road remains closed off and drivers are being urged to avoid the area, police added.
Water pressure was reduced in large parts of the city centre but Yorkshire Water said supplies had now been restored.
