ABSA Announces Indeterminate Water Cut for Parts of Buenos Aires Including Bahía Blanca

Planned maintenance and pipe replacements risk leaving homes without tap water, so residents should store supplies and monitor ABSA for updates.

Overview

  • Aguas Bonaerenses S.A. (ABSA) warned of a scheduled interruption or reduction of water service that will affect multiple localities in Buenos Aires province, with specific impacts reported in Bahía Blanca neighbourhoods.
  • Work on Calle XX de Septiembre and Falucho will disrupt supply in the Villa Mitre area, and restoration will be gradual with no precise resumption times provided by the company.
  • Some tasks originally planned for June 30 have been reprogrammed to Thursday, July 2 at the intersection of Brasil and Almafuerte to allow DIPAC to carry out pipe-replacement works.
  • DIPAC’s pipe-replacement activity is expected to cause low pressure in the Kilómetro 5 neighbourhood and could prolong service limitations for nearby users.
  • ABSA advises households to store water for drinking, cooking and basic hygiene, to avoid nonessential uses, and to seek help through the technical assistance line 0800-999-2272 or the company’s social channels for real-time updates.
