West Zone concessionaire Maynilad Water Services Inc. is investing P1.1 billion over a period of three years to rehabilitate five esteros in Manila, in support of government efforts to clean-up waterways that drain out to Manila Bay.

The company said esteros in Manila that will be part of the program include dela Reina, Sunog Apog, de Magdalena, de Concordia and de San Antonio Abad.

Maynilad will lay around 10 kilometers of sewer lines to catch wastewater flow from customers along the creeks who could not be served by individual sewer connections.

The collected wastewater will then be diverted to the nearest sewer network of Maynilad to benefit some 62,000 people.

Since the company launched its estero rehab initiative in November 2018, it has completed the installation of 323 meters of interceptor pipes along Estero dela Reina, which benefits over 5,300 residents in the area.
