Water disruption in northeast Trinidad on Thursday

The Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) said customers in northeastern Trinidad will experience a disruption in their water supply on January 14 between 8am and 6pm.

In a statement on Tuesday, WASA it said the disruption was necessary to do desilting works at the raw water intake, which will improve efficiency.

WASA warned, “Customers are further advised that it may take up to 24 hours for the pipe-borne water supply to normalise to some areas after the facility returns to operation.”

It said a limited truck-borne service will be available, and priority will be given to health institutions, government agencies and homes for the aged.

Customers should contact WASA’s Customer Call Centre at 800-4420/26 for further information or assistance.
