The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has installed automatic water flow meters
in overhead tanks to distribute precise and calculated water and prevent
overflowing water from tanks.
After installing around 1,50,000 water meters in households and commercial
establishments as part of the 24×7 equitable and regular water supply scheme,
PMC has now begun installing automatic water flow meters at the inlet and
outflow of water tanks that come under Parvati, Pune Cantonment, Ahmednagar
Road, Sinhagad Road, and Baner-Balewadi purification plants.
As per the detailed project report (DPR) of the 24×7 project, consultants initially
estimated that 3,18,000 water meters would be installed including domestic and
commercial consumers in the city. However, during the latest consumer survey, the
actual number has come down to 2,88,000 connections. Out of these, the PMC has
installed 1,50,000 meters and by the end of 2023, all meters will be installed.
