Scottish Water staff are repairing a burst water main that is affecting water supplies in Thurso.
The repair is expected to take around four-and-a-half hours to complete, the utility said at 3.20pm on Wednesday.
It said earlier that customers in the area had reported an interruption to their supply.
In a statement it said: "While we carry out the repair please be aware that you may experience no water supply, low/intermittent pressure or discoloured water.
"The water supply will gradually return to normal for customers once the repair has been completed."
It added that it was expected to take a further two hours once the repair is completed for all customers to have their normal supply restored.
Due to the timeframe, bottled water was not planned to be provided to customers.
