Residents of the city’s western and central zones will experience a water supply disruption on Tuesday evening as crucial leakage repair work is undertaken at the 650 MLD (Megalitres per Day) capacity pump house within the Kotarpur water treatment plant. Authorities have announced a temporary shutdown to facilitate the repairs, affecting water distribution across multiple areas.
Areas in the Sardar Nagar ward will also not receive water in the evening. On Wednesday (February 5), water will be supplied in the morning based on the available stock.
According to Amdavad Municipal Corporation, the 1,600 mm diameter main trunk line distributes drinking water from the Kotarpur water treatment plant to various water distribution stations in the western and central zones, as well as to the Dudheshwar Water Works and water distribution stations in the north zone.
To carry out leakage repair work in front of the 650 MLD capacity pump house, a shutdown of this western main trunk will be implemented on Tuesday.
Due to this, water supply will not be available on Tuesday evening from all water distribution stations in the western zone except for Motera, Chandkheda, and Ranip.
Similarly, water supply will also be unavailable from the Central Main Trunk-based water distribution stations in the central zone and the Hansol, Bhilvas, and Iscon Villa water distribution stations in the north zone’s Sardar Nagar ward.
