Residents living in elevated parts of Flagstaff and Domain as well as surrounding areas are being advised that they will be experiencing low water pressure to intermittent supply from 10am this morning.
A statement from the Water Authority of Fiji (WAF) revealed that affected areas include Ratu Sukuna Road, Queen Elizabeth Drive, Muanikau Road, Laucala Bay Road, Bau Road, McGregor Road, Domain Road, Victoria Parade from Sukuna Park
to Nasese, Nailuva, Rewa Street, Gordon Street, Knolly Street, Fletcher Road, Flagstaff to Suva Point, Damodar City and University of the South Pacific (USP).
WAF says the temporary interruption in water supply is to allow WAF ground teams to inspect a150mm washout line at Nabua and attend to a minor leak thereby preventing a major burst and significant and prolonged water disruptions.
The Authority advises customers residing in the areas above to use water wisely and to store water for their immediate needs during this temporary disruption period.
Water carting trucks are on standby to service the affected areas during the temporary disruption period.
WAF urges customers to conserve and always store sufficient amounts of water to last them for at least two to three days in their homes at all times.
WAF also encourages customers to invest in storage containers or water tanks connected to the water system for storage and backup supply during any unplanned disruption that may arise due to emergency works or natural disasters.
