There is no national map regarding water cuts as they are communicated in a decentralised way, by municipality or local operator. However Postal has gathered together information for this week regarding cuts in certain areas of the country.
Tavira
In Tavira, Taviraverde announced a series of scheduled interruptions on different streets during different periods, emphasising that the allocation is limited to customers located in the area indicated on the map, not covering the rest of the municipality.
On Tuesday, December 9th, an interruption was scheduled between 9 am and 6 pm on Rua Dr. Parreira, followed, on the same day, by a shorter window, between 2 pm and 6 pm, on Avenida Zeca Afonso.
