The Penang Water Supply Corporation (PBAPP) has announced a 14-hour scheduled water disruption affecting 7,238 residential and commercial premises in Seberang Perai Selatan. The interruption will begin at 10pm today and is expected to end by noon on Wednesday.

This is due to the temporary shutdown of a 600mm pipeline to facilitate diversion works at Sungai Kerian, as part of a bridge upgrading project by the Public Works Department (JKR).

Affected areas include Jalan Besar Dato Keramat, Jalan Besar Permatang Keling, Jalan Sempadan, Permatang Tok Mahat, Tanjung Berembang, Sungai Acheh, Sungai Udang, Sungai Chenaam, and Sungai Bakau.

PBAPP has urged consumers to store adequate water during this period and will provide updates via its official Facebook page. The corporation apologises for the inconvenience caused and appreciates public cooperation.
