THE Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) says permanent road restoration on the Beetham Highway, Sea Lots, where an eight-inch main ruptured and a sink-hole developed, will be carried out by September 10.

WASA said it received reports of the burst main around 1 pm on September 8 and immediately deployed a repair crew but the job was complex with underground lines from T&TEC and NGC near the damaged pipe.

“The repairs were completed and the roadway temporarily restored at approximately 5 am on September 8, with the interim reinstatement works resuming at 6 pm.
