Burst Pipe at Jalan Sierramas Barat cuts of water supply to 280 areas in KL, PJ, Subang and Shah Alam

286,000 households and businesses hit by water cut


 
PETALING JAYA: The water disruption that hit the Klang Valley earlier Thursday is expected to affect 286,000 households and businesses, according to Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (Syabas).
A water pipe that burst at approximately 6am today at Jalan Sierramas Barat in Sungai Buloh has cut off supply to 280 areas in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Subang and Shah Alam.
Syabas corporate communications head Amin Lin Abdullah said most of these areas still have running water as consumers are getting their supply from the service reservoirs in residential areas.
“Depending on the size of the service reservoirs and rate of usage, water supply will probably be depleted by tonight,” he said.
Amin added that water tankers would be despatched to affected areas.
“Customers can also request for relief water supply via SMS.
“Water is expected to be fully restored in stages after the repair work is completed,” he said.
Syabas said that repair work has been accelerated and expected to be completed within 48 hours.
For relief water supply, send an SMS to 15300 (Type Tanker<space> Name & Address) and for details, or visit www.syabas.com.my.
