REGIDESO has recently introduced an exciting new initiative in Bukavu, focusing on enhancing its water distribution network by installing modern polyethylene pipes. This advancement signifies a significant stride in enhancing drinking water services in the South Kivu region.
Replacing the outdated cast iron pipes with polyethylene pipes, which are more resistant to seismic activities, ensures the integrity of the water distribution system. The flexibility of these pipes allows for better adaptation to varying terrains, ensuring a more reliable and sustainable water distribution system for the residents of Bukavu.
Providing insight into the benefits of polyethylene pipes, Ignace Ilunga Kabulo, the Provincial Director of REGIDESO, highlights their robustness and durability. Installing 408 meters of these new pipes showcases REGIDESO’s commitment to ensuring efficient and uninterrupted water supply services.
Simultaneously, Marc Malago, the interim governor of South Kivu, stresses the importance of dismantling unauthorized structures that impede REGIDESO’s network functionality. Ensuring infrastructure security is crucial for uninterrupted water distribution, and affected residents must understand the significance of these actions.
A collaborative effort between REGIDESO, local authorities, and residents is imperative to ensure optimal water resource management in Bukavu. Access to clean water is a fundamental right for all individuals, and this initiative is a pivotal step towards enhancing the quality of life for South Kivu residents.
This modernization of the water distribution network reflects the authorities’ dedication to providing quality public services to the Bukavu population. By investing in sustainable infrastructure tailored to local needs, REGIDESO is contributing to a safer and more prosperous future for all residents.
