The exhibition will take place between 4pm – 7pm at the Mitchell Street Centre today, 04 August.

Ruaridh MacGregor, Scottish Water's Community Team Manager, said: "As with the recent successful event for the Perth Road section of works, this event, along with our wider communications to the local area, is greatly important in helping us understand the needs of customers, giving them the opportunity to find out more, and also in ensuring customers are fully aware of works that affect them.

"The work we are set to carry out is essential for the long term water supply. By refurbishing our water mains, it will ensure that the water supply network continues to provide water quality of the highest standard."
