What you need to know:
- Some of the areas to be affected are the UN Complex, Ridgeways, Muthaiga North, Balozi, Garden Estate, Windsor, and Mathare North.
- Nairobi has been experiencing water rationing since April 2017 forcing most residents to turn to borehole water or purchase water from vendors.
Several areas in Nairobi will experience an interruption of water supply on Wednesday and Thursday due to a shutdown of the water pipeline.
In a notice issued on Monday, the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company said the water pipeline from Gigiri Reservoir to Karura Reservoir to Outer Ring Road will be shut on Wednesday from 6am to Thursday 6am.
