Handout/Maynilad</div>MANILA (UPDATED) -- Maynilad Water Services, Inc. said the repair works of a major pipeline in Manila has been finished. The said pipeline was accidentally damaged by a third party contractor building the New Pritil Market in Tondo, causing a major water interruption that affected several areas in Cavite, Las Piñas, Manila, Parañaque and Pasay since Saturday. <div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/news/nation/2025/6/7/-walangtubig-areas-in-metro-manila-cavite-affected-by-water-supply-interruption-until-june-8-1232">READ: Areas in Metro Manila, Cavite affected by water supply interruption until June 8</a></div>“Natapos na ang repair work sa 2.2 meter diameter pipeline sa Manila,” said Maynilad in <a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://x.com/maynilad/status/1931639947196555497">a statement posted in their social media pages</a>. “Nagsimula na ang energization ng 2.2-meter diameter pipeline sa kahabaan ng Nicolas Zamora Street, Tondo, Manila, na aksidenteng natamaan ng third-party contractor na nagtatayo ng New Pritil Market.” The repair works were done at 5 p.m. on Sunday. Maynilad said water supply will slowly return to affected areas in the next few hours. “Dahil dito, unti-unti nang maibabalik ang water supply sa mga apektadong lugar sa mga susunod na oras—mas maaga kaysa sa extended schedule na inanunsyo kanina. Inaasahan ding magsisimula na ang build-up ng pressure at pag-normalize ng network,” it said. The water supply in Tondo, Manila was restored around 6 p.m. on Sunday following disruptions caused by a damaged pipeline, according to officials from Barangay 78. While water pressure remains low, it is already sufficient for basic needs such as bathing and cleaning, the barangay said. Maynilad added that it will conduct flushing operations to ensure clean and clear water supply. “Asahan ang pansamantalang water discoloration kapag bumalik na ang supply. Kung mangyari ito, padaluyin muna ang tubig ng ilang sandali hanggang luminaw,” said Maynilad. It also reminded that the resumption of supply depends on several factors. “Ang aktwal na oras ng balik-supply ay naka-depende sa elevation ng lugar, distansya mula sa aming pumping stations, at lakas ng volume withdrawal ng customers.” -- with a report from Izzy Lee, ABS-CBN News
