The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) has announced an extension of the ongoing water rationing in the Greater Accra Region. The decision comes in response to the challenges posed by increasing demand, reduced water levels in key reservoirs, and infrastructure maintenance needs.
This rationing effort, which initially started as a temporary measure, will now continue indefinitely as the company works to manage the limited water supply more effectively. Residents in affected areas will experience intermittent water flow as GWCL aims to ensure equitable distribution of the available water across the region.
The extension of the rationing is expected to affect households, businesses, and public institutions, prompting the GWCL to advise residents to conserve water and store it whenever it is available. The company is also exploring long-term solutions, including upgrading water treatment plants and pipelines to improve supply reliability in the future.
