A FAST food restaurant is now back open after earlier having to close due to a burst water pipe.
We previously reported McDonald's at Blackpole Retail Park had to close today, (January 19).
But in good news for fast food fans, in an update at 5pm, a spokesperson from McDonald's said the restaurant had now reopened.
The spokesperson said a burst water pipe in the local area meant the water supply had been shut off to the restaurant, which originally forced the closure.
The spokesperson said the restaurant is now back up and running.
