Bogota and eleven surrounding municipalities ((City of Cota, Soacha, Funza, Madrid, Mosquera, La Calera, Chia, Cajicá, Sopo, Gachancipá and Tocancipá) They will continue with water rationing measures. The Bogota City Hall and the Bogotá Aqueduct and Sewerage Company (EAAB) They defined changes to the restrictions in the water service from Monday, July 1, 2024.
We invite you to consult: Bogotá water rationing: What will happen with shifts 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 cycle nine?
The nine zones and nine restriction shifts are maintained distributed in localities of Bogotá and in the eleven surrounding municipalities that are supplied by the Aqueduct Drinking Water Network. Now rationing will be carried out every 18 days and not every 9 days as the restrictions were in place in previous cycles.
One of the factors to understand the new rationing process from July 1 to 31 is that the rationing shifts will govern every other day, that is, on odd days there will be restrictions according to shift and area, and for even days there will be no suspension of water service in the city and neighboring municipalities.
