Sri Lanka: Scheduled water disruptions to occur in various parts of Colombo until 06:00 Nov. 30

Scheduled water outages to affect parts of Colombo, Sri Lanka, until 06:00 Nov. 30. Commercial disruptions possible.

Informational

The National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWSDB) has announced that water outages will impact parts of Colombo until 06:00 Nov. 30. Several areas, including Colombo Districts 12-15, will be affected.

Some business disruptions are possible, especially for companies that rely on large quantities of municipal water. While residents typically rely on private water suppliers during water outages, ongoing fuel shortages could limit availability.

Confirm alternative water supplies for business operations. Pressure and water quality may be poor after service resumes; run taps for several minutes before using water. Use only bottled water from reputable suppliers for drinking and hygienic purposes.
