The Junta de Andalucía has requested that fourteen municipalities that take water from the Axarquía reservoir, La Viñuela consume less water.
A water-supply pipe belonging to the Axaragua utility company burst in Vélez-Málaga yesterday morning with a loss of 500,000 litres of mains water.
The village of El Trapiche in the Axarquia was swamped last night when the main pipe supplying water to nearby municipalities burst on Viñuela Reservoir.
