The BMC will soon build a pumping station with a capacity of 200 million litres per day (MLD) at Vihar Lake to divert excess water to the Bhandup filtration plant. This will add 90MLD to the city’s daily supply during the monsoon and assist areas affected by the Mithi River.
Additionally, the BMC plans to build a weir between Middle Vaitarna and Modak Sagar to store excess water. While the city’s water demand has reached 4,463MLD, the BMC currently supplies only 3,950MLD.
