Monrovia, Liberia, Tuesday, October 29, 2025- The City of Greenville, Sinoe County, celebrated a significant milestone on October 27, 2025, with the groundbreaking ceremony for the Greenville Water Supply System.
The project, according to the Liberia Water and Sewer Corporation (LWSC) team recently, in the county aims to restore pipe-borne water service to the city, which has been without this essential service since the civil war broke out in Liberia in 1989.
The LWSC said lack of access to clean and reliable water has been a major challenge for the residents of Greenville for decades, the city’s residents have had to rely on alternative sources of water, which are often unreliable and unhygienic.
The new water supply system when completed will provide a sustainable solution to the city’s water needs, improving the health and well-being of residents.
Greenville, a provincial city with approximately 27,000 inhabitants, the groundbreaking ceremony marks the beginning of a new era having access to clean pipe borne water for local residents.
The project is expected to bring numerous benefits to the city, including improved access to clean water, enhanced economic opportunities, and a better quality of life for its residents. The project is being undertaken and financed by the Liberia Water and Sewer Corporation (LWSC) in collaboration with contractors and engineers who have been hired for implementation purposes.
Be that as it may, the contractors and LWSC engineers have already taken residence in the city and have begun the process of implementing the project. The project is expected to be completed in a timely manner, with both parties working diligently to ensure its success.
The Greenville Water Supply System project, according to the LWSC is expected to have a significant impact on the community. It will improve the health and well-being of residents, reduce the burden on women and children who often have to walk long distances to fetch water, and enhance economic opportunities in the city.
The project is a testament to the government’s commitment to improving the lives of Liberians. The government has prioritized the restoration of basic services, including water and sanitation, to promote economic growth and development.
The groundbreaking ceremony for the Greenville Water Supply System marks a new chapter in the history of Sinoe County. The project is expected to bring numerous benefits to the city and its residents, and its completion will be a significant milestone in the development of the region.
With the project’s implementation underway, residents of Greenville can look forward to a brighter future with access to clean and reliable water.
