the government is launching hydrogeological studies to assess groundwater resources in Greater Lomé, ahead of the launch of the Urban Water Security Project in Togo (PaSH-MUT). The work has been entrusted to the French company Quantum.</h2> <div class="post-wrap" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: "Roboto Slab", serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 200; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem;">The supply of drinking water to Greater Lomé is about to take a new step forward. Hydrogeological studies will soon be starting in several localities in and around the Togolese capital.They will be carried out by Quantum, a company specialising in this field and present in some fifteen countries in Africa. The project was unveiled on 17 July 2024 by the Togolese Ministry of Water and Village Hydraulics.</p> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem;">Over the coming months, the subsidiary of the French group Saretec will identify and assess the productive water tables in Greater Lomé, study the risks associated with exploiting them, and determine the design of any sealing required.<span> </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><i style="box-sizing: border-box;">“This operation is intended to pave the way for the implementation of the Urban Water Security Project in Togo (PaSH-MUT), which will shortly be launched in the West African country”,<span> </span></i></em>says the Togolese Ministry of Water and Village Hydraulics.</p> <h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 28px; margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2; color: rgb(69, 51, 48); font-size: 18px;">Improving access to drinking water for over a million people</h3> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem;">The studies led by Quantum should determine the start of work on the PaSH-MUT, which will be implemented in five phases thanks to a $100 million loan from the World Bank, through its subsidiary the International Development Association (IDA). The works will run until 2029, with the main objectives of improving access to water and sanitation services in Greater Lomé, as well as the operational performance of suppliers to the supply system.The main aim is to improve the supply of drinking water in this region, which comprises 13 councils and currently relies on around fifty boreholes tapping into three aquifers.</p> <p

style="box-sizing: border-box;">“The Greater Lomé network currently covers only 58% of Togolaise des Eaux (TdE) subscribers, and the low capacity of the Cacaveli water production plant limits the distribution network to meeting growing demand,”</i></em> explained Yark Damehame, Minister of State for Water and Village Hydraulics, in October 2023 during the official launch of the PaSH-MUT.</p> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: "Roboto Slab", serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal;

white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Overall, almost a million people living in the Greater Lomé area will be able to benefit from a better supply of drinking water by the end of the Urban Water Security Project in Togo.</p> </div> <p>Cover photo: <span style="color: rgb(153,
