A burst water main has sparked major disruption in Alloa.
The incident, which occurred on Tuesday, March 24 at the Whins Road roundabout, led to a full closure of the roundabout and interrupted water supplies in the FK10 postcode area.
Scottish Water crews have been on site since the incident, working through the night to restore service.
A spokesman for Scottish Water said: "Our priority has been to maintain water supplies to customers in the area and our teams have been working through the night to do this.
"The repair to the burst water main is complex due to depth and location and therefore Whins Road roundabout in Alloa will remain closed to through traffic in all directions, so our teams can work safely to repair the burst water main.
"We're asking drivers to follow diversion routes, allow extra time and take care when travelling through the area."
To minimise disruption to residents, Scottish Water has introduced backfeeds into the network and deployed water tankers to key points in the area.
Bottled water was distributed to customers on its priority services register in the small supply area impacted on Tuesday evening.
Customers in surrounding areas may still experience intermittent water supply, low pressure or discoloured water as repairs continue.
The closure of Whins Road roundabout has affected traffic in all directions, with drivers advised to follow diversion routes, allow extra time and take care when travelling through the area.
Scottish Water thanked customers and local businesses for patience while this emergency repair work continues.
It has urged motorists to allow extra travel time and to take care when navigating the area.
