Emergency water service interruption in Gualo Rai <\/p>\n
There is currently an emergency water service interr
\nuption in effect for the Gualo Rai area for customers in the streets of Chalan Pale Arnold (near Chongs Refrigeration to the Gualo Rai Road traffic light) and Gualo Rai Road (from the intersection toward Beach Road near True Value Hardware).
\nThe cause of the water service interruption is due to a 16-inch distribution waterline leak on the shoulder of the northbound lane in front of Kylie’s Bakery in Gualo Rai. The repair work is anticipated to be completed this morning at 6:30am, Tuesday. Water service to the affected areas will resume soon after.
