Water supply to be disrupted for 24 hours in parts of Hyderabad on July 27
The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board has announced a 24-hour water supply disruption on July 27. The shutdown is required to facilitate pipeline junction work for the ongoing Uppal flyover construction.
Why it matters
Residents in numerous localities must prepare for a significant service outage due to essential urban infrastructure development.
Water supply will be disrupted for 24 hours in many parts of the city on July 27 from 10 a.m. on account of pipeline junction work being taken up near Uppal Junction to facilitate the ongoing grade separator construction faster.
The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWS&SB) on Saturday stated that the work was connected to the 1,600 mm diameter MS gravity main pipeline of the Krishna Drinking Water Supply Project (KWSP) Phase-II Ring Main-2. The junction work is being taken up to hasten the construction of the P15 foundation of the Uppal flyover being built by the Malkajgiri Municipal Corporation.
The board stated that the work was necessary due to the fact that the road from Uppal Junction towards the Warangal Highway was closed, and completing the foundation work at the earliest would help ameliorate the heavy vehicular traffic situation.
