Colombo, October 21 (Daily Mirror) - The water supply in several areas of the Western Province will be at low pressure tomorrow due to a sudden breakdown in the transmission pipeline to the Churchill Reservoir, the National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWSDB) announced.

Affected areas include Wattala, Mabola, Ja-Ela, Katunayake-Seeduwa Urban Council areas, as well as the Wattala, Biyagama, Mahara, Dompe, Ja-Ela, Katana, and Minuwangoda Pradeshiya Sabha areas.

High-elevation locations may experience low-pressure water supply.

Repair work is underway and the supply is expected to be restored by noon tomorrow (22). Residents are advised to use water sparingly during this time.
