GEORGE TOWN, March 26 – About 2,000 registered water consumers in the following areas will be affected. Urgent 600mm CI water pipeline diversion works will be carried out in front of the building housing the Am Assurance and Kurnia Insurans branch offices at the junction of Jalan Burma and Jalan Arratoon.

The purpose of the pipeline diversion works is to prevent burst pipe mishaps in the area, following the 15.1.2022 incident that resulted in a 24-hour unscheduled water supply interruption. An existing 600mm pipeline along Jalan Burma will be shut down from 9.00am – 9.00pm on 27.3.2022, in order for the diversion works to be carried out. This pipeline shutdown will cause a scheduled water supply interruption.

PBAPP apologises to all affected water consumers for inconveniences caused. These urgent works are necessary to sustain continuous good water supply services at Jalan Burma and surrounding areas. PBAPP has informed the Padang Kota State Assemblyman’s Office, Gleneagles Hospital and the Fire Services Department about the scheduled water supply interruption on 27.3.2022. Please call PBAPP 24-hour Call Centre at 04 255 8 255 for further assistance.
