KUANTAN – Several areas in Kuantan are expected to experience water disruption from 8am on September 20, due to pipe installation works at the Mahkota Golf & Country Club, here.
Pengurusan Air Pahang Bhd (Paip) chief executive officer Saiful Zaini Mohd Bokhari said in a statement today that pipe installation works carried out at the site would take about 48 hours to be completed.
“Pipe-laying works are currently going on and almost 80% completed. The remaining 20% involves connecting newly laid pipes to the main supply. It is therefore important to shut down the main valve to enable workers to connect supply,” he said.
