The primary goals of the Chandigarh 24x7 Pan-City Water Supply Project include:
- Transition to Continuous Water Supply
- Shift Chandigarh's water supply system from an intermittent service to a 24x7 continuous, pressurized system.
- Infrastructure Enhancement
- Replace and upgrade the existing water distribution networks, storage facilities, and pumping stations to support continuous water distribution.
- Sustainable Water Management
- Increase the use of surface water sources and reduce reliance on underground water to protect and preserve water resources.
- Leakage Reduction
- Implement leak detection and pressure management systems to minimize water loss and improve overall system efficiency
Milestones
- Initial design and diagnostic assessments, followed by the commencement of infrastructure upgrades and retrofitting works.
- Installation of advanced monitoring systems such as SCADA and smart meters, alongside the rollout of the continuous water supply.
- Full-scale operation of the 24x7 water supply system, with ongoing monitoring and optimization.
