Coimbatore: Drinking water is supplied to Kurichi and Kuniyamuthur areas of Coimbatore District from Pollachi Ambarampalayam River using underground pipes through Kinathukadavu.

The Kuniyamuthur drinking water project pipeline that runs through Kinathukkadavu broke down today in front of the Kinathukadavu Government Girls' High School. Over one lakh liters of water that gushed out of the pipes was wasted on the road.
