The decision to carry out this work has been made to replace the existing 900 mm diameter water main along Marve Road in the Malad (West) area. The old and dilapidated water line will be replaced during the 24-hour period, as the work requires the isolation of the water mains, as per the Mid-day report.

According to the BMC, the replacement of the water main will help to eliminate water loss due to leakages, resulting in improved water pressure and overall distribution in the vicinity of Malad.

Mumbai Water Cut: The specific work to be carried out includes:

900 x 900 mm dia cross connection and discarding of the old 900 mm dia water main at Shinde Garage, Marve Road, Malad.

900 x 900 mm dia cross connection and discarding of the old 900 mm dia cross connection at the junction of Marve Road and Lagoon Road, Malad.
