Today Tuesday, January 28th 2025, the Barbados Water Authority (BWA) wishes to issue a warning pertaining to a video circulating on social media.
The Authority strongly advises persons to desist from wading or swimming in water at any of its active worksites.
Entering these areas can pose great danger to anyone venturing into them especially when they are near electric poles or lines. This is a dangerous activity that can result in serious injury or death.
By the same token, stepping on any of the BWA’s infrastructure, repairs to which may already be underway or may have already been completed, could damage the substructure and affect the completion time of the ongoing work.
The update to the worksite highlighted in the video is that the repair work at the site has been completed and the area is soon to be reinstated.
However, the Barbados Water Authority again takes this opportunity to warn persons against trespassing on any of its active worksites. (ENDS)
