Water Main Burst in Milladoiro Leaves Residents Without Water

A water main burst in the town of Milladoiro, Galicia, on Thursday, May 22nd, 2025, around 11 am, causing significant disruption to the local water supply. The incident occurred during roadworks on Avenida Rosalía de Castro when construction workers accidentally damaged the main pipe. A powerful jet of water shot into the air, reaching halfway across the road. While traffic continued to flow, many local businesses and homes were left without water. "We had to call and reschedule appointments for tomorrow," said one business owner, "because we can't work without water." Another resident added, "Everything is closed, we can't do anything." Authorities are working to restore water service as quickly as possible. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of careful planning and execution during infrastructure projects.
