The rupture of a pipeline of the aqueduct in Paraíso de Cartago, kept the entire district of Ujarrás without water service for 24 hours.

As explained by the Municipality of Paraíso, the main pipe was inside a private property and could not be repaired immediately because the owner did not allow them to enter the place.

However, it was possible to make the repair from another point of the aqueduct, located in another private property.

The Municipality of Paraíso will take actions to remove the pipeline from the private property, where is also susceptible to landslides.
