The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) will be carrying out cross-connection work on the 2400 mm diameter Upper Vaitarna water pipeline in the K-East ward.

Owing to this, the water supply in as many as five municipal wards in central mumbai and the eastern and western suburbs will witness low water pressure for three days.

This work will be conducted from 9 am on Tuesday, January 20, to 5 am on Thursday, January 22. This extensive 44-hour operation will disrupt water supply to several important suburbs of Mumbai.

The officials said that owing to ongoing Metro works, the main waterway channel was diverted in a new direction. Authorities will now join the newly laid water channel with the existing network to ensure there is no continued disruption in water supply.
