Thane city’s several parts will experience a 24-hour water supply disruption starting Thursday afternoon due to maintenance work being carried out by the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC), according to the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC).
The civic body said the shutdown will begin at 12 pm on May 7 and continue until 12 pm on May 8.
The work involves urgent repairs and upgradation of Barvi gravity pipelines 1, 2 and 3 at the reservoir of the Jambhul Water Treatment Plant.
Moreover, a 24-hour water cut will affect Rupadevi Pada, Kisan Nagar No. 2, Nehru Nagar in the Wagle ward committee, and Lower Kolshet village under the Manpada ward committee, the civic body said.
The Thane Municipal Corporation has cautioned that water pressure may remain low for one to two days after supply is restored.
Residents have been advised to store sufficient water in advance and use it sparingly, the TMC said, urging citizens to cooperate during the maintenance period.
Authorities emphasized that the measure is precautionary and aimed at maintaining sustainable water levels in the face of uncertain monsoon conditions.
