Water supply resumes to 5 out of 58 areas in KL

 

Two water treatment plants were shut down on Tuesday, disrupting supplies to 58 areas.

KUALA LUMPUR: Five out of 58 areas affected in Kuala Lumpur and Gombak have received full water supply by 3pm today, according to Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Air Selangor).

The five areas are Kementah (the ministry of defence), the Police Training Centre (Pulapol), Taman Dato Ahmad Razali, Taman Putra Sulaiman, and Wangsa Maju Seksyen 4.

The water disruption was due to valve replacement works at the raw water pipeline from the Klang Gates Dam which caused a temporary shut down at the Bukit Nanas and Wangsa Maju water treatment plants on Tuesday.

“Air Selangor would like to advise consumers who have received their water supply to allow the water to flow from the tap until it is clear before using it for daily usage,” the company said.

Consumers who have received their water supply should use water prudently to allow the recovery process in the other affected areas to run smoothly as scheduled. - FMT
