Several areas under Maynilad see water interruption due to pipeline transfer
Maynilad Water Services Inc. announced water service interruptions in parts of Makati, Manila, Parañaque, and Pasay from November 19 to 20, affecting over 120,000 service connections.
The interruptions are necessary for the realignment of a 1,350 mm diameter pipe to accommodate the construction of the new Philippine National Railway (PNR) New Paco Train Station, involving the replacement of a 250-meter pipeline.
Additional activities, including the interconnection of pipes and efforts to reduce water losses, are being performed during the downtime to improve supply availability and pressure.
Normal water supply is expected to resume by 6 a.m. on November 20.
Maynilad has deployed mobile water tankers and 16 stationary tanks in affected areas, but some residents and businesses faced difficulties due to lack of awareness and water shortage.
