The water supply will be shut-off from 9am to 4:30pm due to a power blackout at the same time at Sri Samut Rd, Supalai Hills housing estate, and Soi Cherng Talay, which will leave the water pump stations without electricity, the PWA said in its announcement.
The blackout will see electricity supply temporarily shut off in parts of Thalang tomorrow as works are carried out on installing new high-voltage power cables. (See story here.)
The blackout will affect power supply to pump stations serving mains water supply to Sakoo (near Phuket International Airport), Mai Khao, Thepkrasattri, Srisoonthorn, Pa Khlok, Cherng Talay, Koh Kaew and Rassada.
“Please collect any water you may require beforehand. It is expected that the water may have some discolouration after the repairs,” the PWA statement said.
Both the PWA and the PEA apologised for any inconvenience caused.
