7090 Braine le Comte : A renewal project of our installations is ongoing or upcoming

SWDE teams are modernising and improving the drinking water distribution network by installing new pipelines.

This work may extend over several days and cause irregular water outages of varying duration. Pressure drops may also occur.

Aware of the inconvenience these works may cause, our teams do their utmost to minimise their impact:

• on the supply of drinking water to your tap
• on traffic around the work site.

If water outages need to be scheduled, SWDE or the company in charge of the work will notify the affected residents at least three days in advance.

During or after the work, you may notice the following phenomena when opening your tap:

• temporary drops in pressure
  No need to worry — this phenomenon is temporary. If it continues, please contact our services.
• brownish or reddish water
  See our recommendations.
• milky-looking water
  This phenomenon is not related to excess limescale. It is simply due to air bubbles in the water and has no impact on water quality (see Water Quality FAQ).

To limit the impact of road or pavement openings for nearby residents, other utilities sometimes take the opportunity to install their underground infrastructure (optical fibre, gas, sewerage, etc.). As a result, the duration of the works may vary depending on each stakeholder’s constraints, over which SWDE has no control.

The end date of the work displayed on this page may be postponed due to unforeseen difficulties encountered during the works or due to weather conditions.
