GWCL to cut water supply to parts of Accra
The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) has announced plans to restrict water supply to the western parts of the Greater Accra Region starting Monday, September 13, 2021.
In a press release sighted by norvanreports, the GWCL asserts that the restriction of water to certain parts of the region will be due to the replacement of some faulty valves on the main 900mm transmission pipe lines, which impedes water flow and causes serious challenges in the distribution lines to the western areas of the region.
“There are some leakages also within the supply area, causing GWCL to lose several volumes of water daily and consequently having a serious impact on the volumes available for consumption,” added the GWCL.
Areas envisaged to be affected by the cut in water supply include; Weija, Gbawe, Kasoa, Mallam, Sakaman, Odorkor, Dansoman, Mamprobi, Agege, Korle-Gorno, Korle-Bu, Laterbiokorshie, Mataheko, North Industrial Area, Kaneshie, Awudome Estates, North Kaneshie, Abeka La Paz, Quarshieman, Anyaa, Santa Maria, Ablekuma, Alhaji, Tabora, Tesano, Dome, Taifa, Achimota and the surrounding communities.
