Water cuts continue to be a major concern in parts of the Central Division as thousands of people living from Lami to Nausori have been without water or are experiencing intermittent supply from Saturday.
Some people have called us and said that the Water Authority Customer Service has now told them that there will be no water supply for a week.
We called the WAF Customer Care number a few times but no one picked up our call.
We had also sent questions to the Authority regarding the disruption in the Central Division however they have not responded to our questions.
The Authority has now said on the WAF Facebook page that due to the trough of low pressure and associated rain currently being faced by the country, people in most parts of Viti Levu and other areas will experience low pressure to no water supply from now until further notice.
Affected areas include Suva, Nausori, Navua, Deuba, Sigatoka, Buabua, Ba, Tavua, Vatukoula, Rakiraki, Labasa, Nabouwalu, Savusavu and Taveuni.
People living in these areas are being advised to store water for at least 2 to 3 days when it is available and are requested to use it wisely during this temporary disruption period.
WAF says these prevailing weather conditions heavily impact their supply systems and production capabilities as they lead to the build up of floodwaters, create high turbidity, causing pump breakdowns and block dams.
They say their carting trucks are on standby and can be requested in case of an emergency by calling 1507.
