GWL said the work was completed on schedule despite technical and operational challenges encountered during the exercise.

However, the company has cautioned consumers not to expect an immediate return to normal water supply.

Customers have therefore been advised to continue following their usual water rationing schedules while the network is gradually recharged.

The Kpong Treatment Plant is an important part of the water supply system serving the eastern corridor of Greater Accra, including Tema and surrounding communities.

GWL has been carrying out rehabilitation works on the ageing Kpong transmission network as part of efforts to reduce water losses and improve the reliability of supply.
