After receiving a complaint, CORAAPPLATA (Corporación de Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Puerto Plata, Puerto Plata's water company) took immediate action to resolve an issue related to a damaged water pipe.
There was quite a bit of flooding near the stairs leading to the beach of Sosúa.
Particularly in the section between Los Charamicos and El Batey.
The intervention required heavy equipment and trained technical personnel, who replaced the damaged pipeline.
This situation raised concerns among residents and passers-by about water waste and deteriorated road surfaces in an area recently renovated by the city council.
Water leak resolved, but…
It is noteworthy that CORAAPPLATA had already repaired this section several months earlier to fix a water leak.
This raises concerns in the community about the quality of the solutions applied.
Do we have to prepare for the next leak?
