Lima faces water cuts April 19-20 due to Sedapal maintenance

Residents across multiple districts in Lima are bracing for significant water supply interruptions as Sedapal, the city's water and sewage service, implements scheduled maintenance. From Sunday, April 19, to Monday, April 20, various urbanizations and human settlements will experience water cuts lasting up to 10 hours. The planned suspensions are attributed to essential tasks such as reservoir cleaning and network upgrades, aimed at improving the overall water supply system. Specific areas in Chaclacayo, San Martín de Porres, and San Juan de Lurigancho are listed with detailed schedules of the outages. Sedapal urges the public to take necessary precautions, including storing water in clean containers and practicing responsible consumption to mitigate the impact. While the service disruptions are localized, the scale of the operation highlights the ongoing challenges in maintaining and upgrading infrastructure for the sprawling metropolitan area. The utility assures that water supply will be gradually restored once the maintenance work is completed.
