mail@newsofbahrain.com

A new water distribution station with a storage capacity of 11.25 million imperial gallons is under construction in Wadi Al Buhair, aimed at enhancing water security and meeting the growing demand in Bahrain’s Southern Governorate.

Southern Municipal Council Chairman Abdulla Ebrahim Abdullatif said the Hunainiya station will support nearby residential areas, including Blocks 901, 905 and 907, while improving the efficiency and reliability of water distribution as urban development continues.

The project includes a 10 million imperial gallon ground reservoir, a 1.25 million imperial gallon elevated tank serving East Riffa, a main pumping station, utility facilities and advanced operation systems.

The station will connect to the Electricity and Water Authority’s control centre through SCADA technology and fibre-optic networks, enabling 24-hour monitoring and faster responses to emergencies.

 

Expected to be completed by December 2027, the project is set to become a key addition to the Southern Governorate’s infrastructure, supporting future housing developments and the needs of expanding communities.
