AHMEDABAD: Municipal water supply to the posh northwest zone and parts of west zone, like Chandkheda, Motera will be briefly disrupted on Wednesday owing to engineering department connecting the newly constructed Chandkheda-Motera water distribution station to the main 900-meter waterline.
Sources in the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) said that water supply in the evening will be disrupted on Wednesday. “If all goes well, we are likely to restore the water supply on Thursday morning,” said a senior AMC official.
The north-west zone mainly includes areas like Bodakdev, Chandlodia, Ghatlodia, Thaltej, Gota. “We have a team of 35 people who are at the site to speed up the water supply link,” said a senior AMC water supply department assistant engineer. In the west zone, similarly, water supply will be disrupted at Tragad, Chandkheda, GHB cluster, Shailganga, Shrinath, Motera and Bhutbangla.
AMC officials said that two links are required to be made to the two water distribution stations in the Chandkheda-Motera area. “The two water links that are to be made are the 900mm and 1,350mm water links and since these are large lines we have to dewater the entire line,” says the AMC official.
