PETALING JAYA: Water supply has been fully restored to 156 areas in Sepang and Kuala Langat affected by a burst pipe at Kampung Chinchang in Salak Tinggi, Sepang.
The burst pipe caused 145 areas in Sepang and 11 in Kuala Langat to go without water from 9pm on Monday.
In a statement today, Air Selangor’s corporate communications head Elina Baseri said supply in the affected areas had “fully recovered” as at 7am today.
Water supply was restored in stages from 2.30pm yesterday following emergency repairs to the pipe.
Water tankers were mobilised to the affected areas with priority accorded to critical services such as hospitals, dialysis centres and funeral ceremonies, said Elina in a statement.
The disruption came days after taps ran dry for four days in major areas of the Klang Valley last week because of repairs and maintenance work at the Sungai Selangor water treatment plant.
