This evening, Thursday, May 29th 2025, the Barbados Water Authority (BWA) is pleased to announce that crews have completed repairs on the ruptured main in Odessa McLean Drive. Temporary reinstatement of the roadway has been completed and permanent reinstatement with asphalt will be assigned to a contractor.
Pumping has resumed and personnel are checking the Distribution Network to verify flows and pressures. It may take some time for pressures in the entire system to return to normal.
The water supply for affected residents and businesses in parts of St. Michael and Christ Church districts is expected to return to normal gradually over the next 12 – 24 hours. Water tankers will continue to assist residents of any affected areas in the interim.
The Barbados Water Authority apologises for any inconvenience this service disruption may have caused and thanks customers for their patience and understanding. (ENDS)
