RESIDENTS in some parts of South-West Trinidad will experience a disruption in their pipe-borne water supply from Wednesday (July 13) from 5 am and 8 pm.
On Monday, the Water and Sewerage Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (WASA) stated the disruption was necessary to facilitate repairs to a leaking 24-inch diameter pipeline, at LP #55 along the northbound lane of the Point Fortin Highway—in the vicinity of the Mondesir Overpass.
In addition, WASA also stated there will be a planned electrical maintenance work at the South Oropouche Booster Station on Wednesday.
The authority reminded customers that following the completion of these works, it may take up to 24 hours for the supply to normalise in some affected areas:
La Brea, Vessigny, Union Village, Sobo, Union Industrial Estate, Libidco Industrial Estate, Quarry Settlement, Quarry Road; along SS Erin Erin Road from Siparia Market to Corner Fyzabad Field Trace; Santa Flora, La Brea Trace, Sudama Village; along Guapo Road, from Mulchan Trace to Fyzabad Junction; Katwaroo Trace, Patiram Trace, Ragoonanan Trace, Batchyia Trace, 1 Mile Mark Rock Road, La Costena, Dil Mohammed, Debedial Road, Boodoo Development.
A limited truck-borne service will be available upon request.
For further information or assistance, customers can contact WASA’s Customer Call Centre toll-free at 800-4420 and 800-4426.
