Cali's Emcali conducts infrastructure maintenance on water, energy, and sewage networks

Empresas Municipales de Cali (Emcali) is undertaking a comprehensive maintenance and modernization effort across the city's water, energy, and sewage networks this Sunday, June 28, 2026. These planned operations are designed to address existing service disruptions, replace outdated electrical equipment, and perform preventative cleaning of urban drainage systems to mitigate environmental risks.

In the water sector, technical crews are working on repairs for leaks and supply failures in El Porvenir (Carrera 4 B # 33 - 01) and Santa Elena (Carrera 30 # 14 - 00). These interventions aim to ensure the continuity and quality of potable water services for residents in these areas.

For the energy grid, Emcali's operational teams are focused on the Santa Mónica Norte Circuit. A key activity involves replacing a power transformer at Avenida 9 N with Calle 15 N in the Granada neighborhood. This measure is intended to stabilize voltage levels and restore consistent electrical supply to this mixed commercial and residential zone.

The sewage system maintenance includes cleaning canals and improving drains to ensure proper rainwater flow, particularly in the eastern and northern sectors of Cali. Specific locations for this work include Canal Calle 42 in the Unión de Vivienda Popular neighborhood, Canal Menga in the Los Álamos area, and Sector Prados del Norte, where drain covers and safety baffles are being replaced. Emcali has reminded the public that its 24-hour customer service channels remain active for reporting any emergencies.
