The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has recently announced a 24-hour water cut for certain areas of the city on September 22 and 23. This move is to facilitate essential work and ensure the long-term sustainability of the city's water supply infrastructure.

Scope and Duration of the Water Cut

The water supply in specific areas will be suspended from 9 AM on September 22 to 9 AM on September 23. Residents in these locations should be aware of the supply disruption and make necessary arrangements for their daily needs.

Residents in these areas should be prepared for a total water supply shutdown from 9 AM to 9 PM on September 22. However, water supply through the STEM Authority will remain uninterrupted.

Motivation for the Water Cut

The TMC has announced this temporary water cut as a crucial step in enhancing the city's water supply infrastructure. The primary objective is to install additional capacity pumping machinery at the Raw Water Pumping Station at Pise. This new equipment will improve the efficiency and reliability of the water supply system, benefiting the entire city in the long run.

Other Essential Works

Alongside the installation of the additional capacity machinery, other essential works will be carried out during this period. These works are aimed at ensuring the smooth functioning of the water supply system and addressing any existing issues that could lead to future disruptions.

Precautionary Measures and Recommendations

Residents affected by the water cut are advised to take the following precautionary measures:

Store sufficient water for drinking, cooking, and hygiene purposes before the water cut begins. Any appliances that require water, such as dishwashers and washing machines, should be disconnected during the shutdown. Check for any leakage in taps and pipes before the water cut. Follow local guidelines for water conservation and the reuse of water if possible.

For those who rely on water for their businesses, special arrangements should be made in advance. Contact the local authority or utility company if you require additional support or specific guidelines.

Contact Information and Further Notices

Residents and businesses can contact the Thane Municipal Corporation for further information or specific advice. The TMC will likely issue additional notices and updates through their official channels. Keep an eye on these to stay informed.
