SHAH ALAM, Feb 28 — The water supply for 11 areas in the Klang Region has been temporarily suspended following a burst pipe incident, said Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd.

Its corporate communication head Elina Baseri said emergency works are currently being carried out on the burst pipe along Jalan Seruling 59 in Taman Seri Andalas, Klang.

“To ensure that the emergency repair work runs smoothly, the water supply in the affected areas has been suspended from 8pm onwards,” she said in a statement.

The repair works are expected to be completed by 4am, tomorrow (March 1) with the water supply distributed to consumers’ premises in stages, once repair works are completed.

“The duration of water supply recovery differs from one area to another depending on the location and distance of the consumer’s premises.

“Alternative water assistance through water tankers will be mobilised to the affected areas, with priority given to critical premises during the unscheduled water supply disruption,” Elina said.

She added that Air Selangor requests for consumers to cooperate by practising social distancing and wearing face masks while collecting their water supply from the tankers.

“Air Selangor will provide updates progressively from time to time through all mediums, especially the mass media. Consumers can also refer to all our official communication channels such as the Air Selangor application, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter or call the Air Selangor Contact Centre at 15300.
