Parts of three Wellington suburbs are without water as crews work to repair a burst drinking water pipe.

Wellington Water crews responded to the burst pipe on Washington Avenue in Brooklyn at 7am on Thursday.

The water supplier says crews are working to restore supply in stages to Brooklyn, Mornington and Vogeltown.

They say two water tankers will provide water for residents.

A Welllington Water spokesperson says water may be being discharged from fire hydrants as teams manage the water pressure in the area.
