Affected water disruption areas to receive supply in stages

PETALING JAYA: The water supply to areas affected by the burst pipe near Pantai Complex Reservoir is recovering in stages following repair works completed this morning.
Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas) in a statement said that there might be some delay for water supply restoration for those located at the end of the distribution channel or high rise areas.
"The repair work took slightly longer due to the replacement of a few burst pipes in the area.
"However, relief water supply is being sent by water tankers to the affected areas and consumers who need additional supply can contact Syabas. We regret the inconvenience caused," the statement said.
Members of the public who wish to obtain more information on the water supply restoration can go to www.syabas.com.my, use the mySyabas smart phone application, or check Air Selangor on Facebook or Twitter.
The unscheduled water disruption which happened on Monday morning caused residents and premises from some 50 areas in the city to experience water cuts for the past two days.
Among the affected areas were Section 5 to Section 21, SS2, Jalan Universiti, Jalan Pantai Baru, Kampung Kerinchi, Jalan Bangsar and Taman Weng Lock.
The unscheduled water cut also affected the Universiti Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC), Pantai Medical Centre, Hospital Columbia Asia, and the Pantai Baru Fire and Rescue Station.
