Hydrocapital reported in the evening hours of Thursday April 7 that a fault was recorded in a 30-inch pipe from the south feeder; which was evidenced in the La Guairita sector near the Cementerio del Este. This structure supplies water to the municipalities of Baruta, El Hatillo and Sucre.
In this sense, the hydrological company implied that the water supply will be affected in several sectors of the aforementioned municipalities due to this failure in that Tuy II System tube. He noted that crews are working to fix the problem.
The rupture of this main tube caused problems in several houses around the affected area of La Guairita, leaving at least 70 people and 25 houses damaged. Residents of these places stated that they would sleep under the open sky in the area.
The residents reported who have been making complaints about it for more than a yearbut they were ignored.
We need to remember that in 2018 a similar event occurred in the area of La Guairita when a main tube broke that harmed the people who live along the one that leads to the Cemetery of the East and that allows the connection with the El Cafetal urbanization. At that time, a little more than 60 people -including children and adults- were affected, although the repair work was they did in just over 48 hours.
