Residents of Bingerville are facing significant disruptions in their access to drinking water following a major technical failure in the local network. According to information reported by 7info.ci, these incidents originated from construction work carried out by a third-party company, whose operations directly damaged the area's hydraulic infrastructure. This type of accident, often linked to the failure to follow underground network marking procedures, once again illustrates the vulnerability of public services in the face of the commune's rapid urbanization. As soon as they were alerted, the Société de Distribution d'Eau de la Côte d'Ivoire (SODECI) mobilized its emergency technical teams. They are currently on-site at the affected locations to carry out the necessary repairs and attempt to restore normal service as quickly as possible. Although the intervention is underway, local authorities and the concessionaire have not yet communicated a precise schedule for a full return to normal, leaving uncertainty about the exact duration of the inconvenience for local populations. This event highlights the crucial importance of coordination between construction companies and public utility managers to prevent collateral damage to essential infrastructure. For the time being, SODECI is prioritizing the secure restoration of the pipes to avoid any further degradation of the network.
