Residents of San Fernando West are now benefiting from around-the-clock water supply following improvements by the Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA), a release from the authority said on August 17.

The release said Minister of Education and MP, Dr Michael Dowlath, joined WASA acting CEO Jeevan Joseph and the authority’s executive evolution team on a community tour on Saturday, which marked the ninth area assessed under the authority’s nationwide infrastructure and customer engagement initiative.

During the tour, officials addressed a collapsed sewer pipeline on Sutton Street, a leaking line on Lady Hailes Avenue, and an ageing cast-iron pipe at Mt Moriah. Repairs are scheduled to begin within the coming weeks, with planned coordination with stakeholders to minimise disruption.
