The October 13-14, 2026 interruption of water supply in Bulacan is due to its scheduled maintenance by MWSS, which affects several municipalities and cities in the province. Water supply might be affected and may be interrupted for a short time. However, local authorities have encouraged households to save water, make emergency provisions and keep an eye out for official updates on when things are restored.
Bulacan Water Interruption Schedule and Cause
To align work on Aqueduct No. 7, Aqueduct No. 6 is going to be closed on October 13-14 for the MWSS water shutdown. Several communities may have low or no water supply during the maintenance period, according to The Philippine Star. The length of time to restore may vary from place to place.
Affected Bulacan Areas and Barangays
Bulacan affected areas are Balagtas, Bulakan, Plaridel, Marilao, Santa Maria, Malolos, Meycauayan, and San Jose del Monte. The Bulacan Bulk Water System Project is a source of livelihood for these localities. All eight areas were mentioned in the local report of October 13, but the complete interruption list for the barangays is not verified.
School Suspensions and Community Disruptions
Schools and the government have adjusted to the disruption of the water supply in Bulacan. Suspension of classes and government work is declared in San Jose del Monte from October 12 to 14; changes to face-to-face classes were announced by Malolos and Marilao. Local reporting indicates that the police warned residents to be ready for interruptions.
Essential Water Storage Tips for Residents
To help households prepare for water cut-offs, it’s a good idea to store water in an empty, covered container before the power outage happens. Focus on drinking, cooking, hygiene and essential sanitation without unnecessary consumption. Do not mix drinking water with cleaning supplies, and use utility’s directions if drinking water is discolored. Local water district advisories will need to be consulted for the latest water information for residents.
