The Nairobi Water Company has announced a disruption in water supply from Kabete Water Treatment Works due to ongoing construction of the Nairobi Expressway Highway.

The shutdown, which started on Wednesday, 30 June 2021 at 6:00 am and will last until Thursday, 1 July 2021 at 6:00 am, will facilitate the interconnection of the relocated pipeline to the old pipeline at the junction of Waiyaki Way Road and James Gichuru Road.

Areas affected by the disruption include estates along Waiyaki Way, Rhapta Road, Parklands Road, and Church Road Westlands, as well as Highridge and Parklands areas, Nairobi School, MP Shah Hospital, Muguga Green Estate, Sarit Centre, and surrounding estates.

The water company has appealed to customers to use available water sparingly as it works towards restoring the supply.

The construction of the Nairobi Expressway has caused significant inconveniences for Nairobi residents, including traffic jams and disruptions to power cables.
