Overview
- The municipal utility has published district-level timetables for planned maintenance that will cause temporary, time-bound water suspensions across multiple Lima and Callao neighborhoods.
- Sedapal says the works focus on cleaning reservoirs and making pipe connections to strengthen storage and distribution and reduce future supply problems.
- Some sectors face interruptions that can last up to about 12 hours, with notices listing exact start and end times for specific neighborhoods.
- To reduce immediate hardship Sedapal deployed water tanker trucks to priority zones and asks residents to store water in advance and use supply sparingly.
- Affected areas include large districts such as San Juan de Lurigancho, Ate, Miraflores, La Molina and San Antonio de Huarochirí, and officials say the short-term cuts are preventive steps to improve long-term reliability.
