In a statement, Thames Water said: "Following a burst pipe that caused low pressure or no water in HP18, OX27 and OX33, we’ve made significant progress on repairing the pipe. We now expect most of our customers to be back in supply, but you may experience lower than normal pressure during periods of higher demand. These times are typically in the morning and during the early evening.
"We’re really sorry for any inconvenience this has caused, and thank you for your patience whilst our engineers were working hard to complete the repair work."
Buckinghamshire Council have also made residents aware of the latest situation.
