The supply of freshwater from Malta to Gozo has been restored following intensive repairs of the damage caused by the recent storm, the Water Services Corporation said.

During the storm, the corporation noticed abnormal pressure on the submarine pipeline, and as soon as the weather permitted it dispatched a team of divers who confirmed extensive damage on the first 100-meter section off Comino.

The submarine pipeline is now fully functional and work will be ongoing over the coming days to further strengthen the asset.
