Published on July 8, 2020, Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company (NCWSC) will shut down the Ngethu Water Treatment plant for 48 hours to facilitate scheduled maintenance.
The shutdown, which starts on Thursday morning and ends on Friday at 6pm, is meant to facilitate major repair works at the Mwagu Water Intake along Chania River.
According to NCWSC's Managing Director Eng. Nahashon Muguna, the intake was damaged by the recent heavy rainfall.
Areas set to experience the interruption of water supply include Juja road, Outer-ring road, Thika road, Mombasa Road, Nairobi city centre, and Limuru road, among others.
NCWSC assured of timely restoration of supply, urging city residents to use available water sparingly.
