According to the announcement released today, the water supply will be shut off from 9am until the works are completed.

Affected areas start at Chok Thip residence and Land & Houses Park Chao Fa East Rd in Chalong and extend all the way to Soi Suk Sombum on Wiset Rd in Rawai.

The waterworks also follow an expression of concern from Phuket Governor Norraphat Plodthong about water shortages in Phuket.

Gov Norraphat recently visited Bang Wad Dam as well as Bang Niew Dam last Friday (April 14) to observe the water resources data.

During the visit, he stated,“After inspecting the sites along with studying the total cost of water resources, I will hold a meeting with all related parties to elaborate a long-term strategy to address the problem of water shortages here on Phuket.”

For more information on the water shut-off tomorrow call the PWA at 076-319173 or 089-8564191.
