The management of Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) has announced the interruption of the water supply to the eastern part of the Greater Accra region.
This will take effect from Monday, September 14, 2020 to Saturday, September 20, 2020.
The affected areas will include Afienya, Apallonia, Gbetsele, Ashaiman, Kakasunanka, Adjei Kojo, East Legon Trasaco, All Communities in Tema (Community 1 to 25), Free Trade Zone enclave, Tema Industrial Area, Dawhenya, Prampram, Spintex Road, Batsonaa, Coca Cola, Kasapreko, Manet, Lashibi, Klagon, Sakumono and surrounding communities.
A statement from management says that GWCL engineers will replace about 2 kilometers of a weak session of the 42-inch diameter transmission main from Kpong to Tema, a reason for the shutdown.
“As a result, management is pleading with Accra consumers, especially consumers in the eastern part of the metropolis, to store enough water for consumption during the closing period.”
Meanwhile, the company has implemented measures to attend to the affected areas so that the impact is not adverse.
“The government covid-19 free water tanks will continue to be filled with cisterns of water to allow consumers to collect it for free,” the statement said.
