Over 5,000 Manchester residents to benefit from new water pipeline upgrade

Approximately 5,200 residents in communities across Mandeville, Manchester are set to benefit from improved water reliability after $124-million pipeline system was brought into operation on Thursday. The project was implemented by the National Water Commission under the Greater Mandeville Water Supply Improvement Programme and replaces an aged 16-inch asbestos cement transmission main that had exceeded its useful service life and contributed to significant water losses.
