The Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation (KW&SC) has reported two major bursts in an 84-inch diameter water main on University Road.
Repairs to the first burst began on Tuesday, while a second burst was discovered during a thorough inspection on Thursday morning. A KWSC spokesperson confirmed that efforts to repair the two bursts are continuing rapidly, with heavy machinery and personnel deployed at the site. However, due to the extensive damage at two locations, some delays were expected in the completion of repairs.
The spokesman assured that the repair work would be completed by Saturday evening. Under the direct supervision of KWSC CEO Engineer Syed Salahuddin Ahmed, the repair work was being carried out on an emergency, round-the-clock operation aimed at restoring water supply to the affected residents as soon as possible.
