MCGM stops water supply to Bandra terminus, yard

The Municipal Corporation of the Greater Mumbai (MCGM) has stopped water supply to Bandra Terminus station and Bandra Yard from today for carrying out alteration work of trunk pipeline.
The water supply would be restored as soon as the work is over, Western Railway said in a release here today.
"BMC has proposed to undertake major alteration work of trunk pipeline, thereby, affecting the water supply to Bandra Terminus station and Bandra Yard till November 21. Due to this, the water supply is decided to be discontinued with immediate effect, upto completion of the work on November 21," the statement said.

The paucity of water will create its shortage at the station premises and also affect the cleaning and watering of trains originating from Bandra Terminus.
"Western Railway has made adequate arrangements for watering of trains at Surat and Valsad stations, however, due to constraints in availability of water and other infrastructure at these locations, watering in some trains may be affected," added the statement.
The WR also expressed its regret over the inconvenience caused to the passengers and has requested to bear the temporary arrangements.
