March 29, 2023

The Barbados Water Authority is advising customers in some St. George and St. Michael districts that today it has sustained a burst on a main in New Market, St. George.

In a release, the Authority said as a result it has been forced to stop pumping from some of its facilities in those parishes to facilitate emergency repairs.

Due to the repairs, customers in Dash Valley, Frere Pilgrim, Edey Village, Buttals, Windsor, St. David’s, Ellerton, Buckley Terrace, Constant, Lower Burney, Carmichael, Turnpike and surrounding areas may be affected by a water outage or low pressure.

The BWA says water tankers have been dispatched to assist and residents will be updated on the progress of the work.

The Authority has apologised for any inconvenience these emergency repairs may cause.
