Opdatering: Spildevandsudledning i Malmös kanaler fortsætter under reparation af rørledning

Reparationsarbejdet er i gang på to revner i en gammel Malmö-kloakledning, og VA Syd fortsætter med at lede spildevand ud i byens kanal, som oprindeligt annonceret. Ifølge rapporter kan op mod 300 liter i sekundet flyde ud i over to døgn.

Efter annonceringen den 4. maj om en akut lækage i en af Malmös hovedkloakledninger, er reparationsarbejdet nu i fuld gang på to revner i den gamle rørledning, oplyser Sydsvenskan-reporter Julius Viktorsson.

Spildevand ledes i øjeblikket ud i kanalen fra pumpestationen Turbinen, indtil udbedringerne er færdige, hvilket potentielt kan medføre en udledning på 300 liter i sekundet i mere end to døgn. Hændelsen understreger Malmös historik med udfordringer i vand- og spildevandsforsyningen.

VA Syd opfordrer fortsat berørte beboere – næsten halvdelen af byen – til at spare på vandet, selvom hovedanbefalingerne forbliver som tidligere udmeldt. Udledningen forventes at vare indtil den 7. maj kl. 00:00, og der er udlagt flydespærringer for at begrænse miljøpåvirkningen.

VA Syd is urging central Malmö residents to flush toilets less, avoid laundry and dishwashing, and shower shorter or at friends' places outside the area. The reason is a leak in a major sewer line requiring repairs. Wastewater will be discharged into Malmö canal from May 5 at 19:00 to May 7 at 00:00.

Untreated wastewater continues flowing into the canal between Västra hamnen and Slottsparken at 300 liters per second after cracks were found in an old main sewer line. The discharge, which began after an announcement on May 4, is scheduled to run until midnight Thursday.
