The BMC has begun work on changing the 100-year-old water pipelines in the city in phases. Under this, the work of changing a 4-km long water line in F south and E wards is in the final stages. Due to this, there will be no water supply in Parel, Sewri and Naigaon on September 11 and 12. The area has hospitals like KEM, Tata, Wadia and MGM. Dadar, Hindmata, Lalbaug will get water supply, but with low pressure.

The work of disconnecting the old 1,450 mm-diameter pipeline and connecting the new 1,500 mm-diameter-line is currently on at Zakaria Bunder Road.
