The municipal company Fagar plans to restore the water supply in a large area of ​​the city center at 22pm this Friday, September 00th, when residents of Faro have been without water for more than 24 hours.

Speaking to TSF in the afternoon, Rogério Bacalhau, president of the Chamber of Faro, explained that the situation is taking a lot of work, because it is not possible to identify the rupture.

Teams from the municipal company Fagar were placed on the ground to “try to discover a possible rupture”, but, so far, without success.

«Probably, the water is leaving the pipes and going to something underground, because it doesn't come to the surface and we can't find out where it is», he explained.

On its website, Fagar states that the situation continues to affect Ruas de São Luís, Cruz das Mestras, Alportel and Cândido Guerreiro, as well as Praças da Paz and António Sérgio.

The municipal company says that the reestablishment can be reestablished at 22:00… but it is just a forecast.

For now, it is the Firefighters Sapadores de Faro who are making available a water tank to supply water to anyone who wants it, at Rua Horta Machado.

«In case of urgent need, the autotanque may have to withdraw», according to Fagar.

Throughout today, the Sul Informação He tried several times to contact Fagar's administration to obtain more clarification about this lack of water, but to no avail.

Furthermore, on your website, Fagar leaves a telephone number (808 289 808) for anyone who wants more information, but when you try to call, you only hear an automatic message about the areas that are still being affected.

There is also another contact for general assistance, but no one responds, because Fagar is closed today... perhaps due to a time allowance due to Municipality Day, which was yesterday.
