CHENNAI: As many as 31 areas in Adyar (Zone 13) will not receive piped drinking water supply due to the main pipeline replacement work carried out by the Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) on November 18 and 19.
In a statement on Saturday, the Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) noted that since the CMRL is replacing the main water pipeline on Indira Nagar Second Avenue, operations of the Pallipattu Water Distribution Station will be temporarily halted for 10 hours from 7 pm on November 18 to 5 am on November 19.
