Water cut in Mira Bhayandar on February 11

The Mira Bhayandar Municipal Corporation (MBMC) announced on Wednesday, February 10, that water supply will be affected in Mira Bhayanda tomorrow, on February 11 (Thursday) due to emergency repair works. As a result, the civic body has also appealed to the people to store water and use water sparingly during the water cut period.

The Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) has undertaken the maintenance and repair work of the aqueduct at Barvi Water Treatment Plant, Jambul under the water supply scheme. Therefore, the water supply will be affected for 24 hours from 12 am on February 10 to 12 am on February 11, said a statement released by the water department.

Meanwhile, the water supply from Shahad Temghar Water Authority (STEM) will continue. A similar water cut was observed in the last month too in the MBMC areas.

Water is supplied to the twin-city jointly by the MIDC and STEM water supply authority.

Recently, the water supply of around 50 buildings along Marine Drive in Mumbai has been cut for over two days owing to a major water pipeline that was hit by piling work for the Coastal Road on Saturday, February 6. Meanwhile, the residents from the buildings on Churchgate’s A, B, C, E, F and G Roads have also complained of receiving muddy water.
