Healthy storage in the reservoirs enabling water board to step up supply
Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) has started gradually increasing the quantity of daily drinking water supply, particularly in core areas, as the storage is building up in the reservoirs. On Saturday, the city and added areas were supplied with nearly 947 million litres a day (mld). This could be one of the highest quantum of drinking water provided in the recent years. The water agency plans to step up the water supply up to 1,000 mld in the next couple of weeks. The core parts of the city are getting an improved supply through pipelines every day. Nearly 747 mld is being supplied through pipeline network, which is about 50 mld more than what was supplied last week. The water board targets to reduce tanker trips and cover the city with piped water supply.More Related News
