The big water accident occurred overnight in the area of ”Skobeleva Maika” in Plovdiv it has turned out to be far more serious than initially anticipated and does indeed threaten that entire areas of Plovdiv will be left without water overnight and tomorrow, or at least with a significantly reduced water supply, the Water and Sewage Administration admitted.
Due to the carelessness of a construction company, a critical component of a water main that supplies the entire city has been interrupted.
Due to the scale of the problem, water supplies are expected to be gradually cut off tonight in the ‘Trakiya’, ‘Iztochen’ and parts of ‘South’ regions, which are fed by this source and by pumps along the way.
Outside of the specified areas on the upper floors of apartment buildings and cooperatives throughout the city, there is also the possibility of a complete water shutdown.
By 20:00 the water had stopped in almost the entire “North” area, despite assurances that this part was not affected.
All of VK’s available emergency crews are working on eliminating the crash, but it certainly won’t happen tonight, and probably during the next day, the company announced.
The advice of the experts is that citizens stock up on possible quantities for consumption and service needs, as it is not possible to specify a precise time for solving the problem.
The “Trakia” region is most at risk of a complete water shutdown, warned the Water and Sewerage Authority – Plovdiv.
