Water supply to divisions 33 to 47 and 70 to 72 of the Kochi Corporation to be affected
Movement of vehicles through Palarivattom-Thammanam road was disrupted on Thursday after an old 700-mm ‘primo’ water pipeline of the Kerala Water Authority (KWA) ruptured and the road near Samskara Junction caved in.
The pipeline could have ruptured owing to water pressure, a KWA engineer who was supervising the repair work said. The restoration work is expected to get over in a day or two, he added.
Subsequently, water supply to divisions 33 to 47 and 70 to 72 of the Kochi Corporation will be affected, said a KWA release.
