ARMIDALE WATER RESTRICTIONS FIRST IN HISTORY

From today, Armidale residents will be on level one water restrictions with the town supply at an all time low.

It’s the first time in over a half a century, water levels are sitting at 60 per cent capacity.

The restrictions limit watering to mornings and evenings, while sprinklers can be used for no more than two hours a day.

Meanwhile, residents in Guyra have been upgraded to level two water restrictions
