Central News Agency, Keelung, April 21 (Reporter: Wang Chao-yu). In coordination with the sewage system construction project of the Keelung City Government, Taiwan Water Corporation will undertake pipe relocation work at Xizhu Bridge on Zhongzheng Road starting from 9 PM on the 26th. There will be a water outage and pressure reduction in Ren'ai, Xinyi, and Zhongzheng districts for a total of 23 hours, affecting 34,128 households.
The 1st District Management Office of Taiwan Water Corporation pointed out that Ren'ai, Xinyi, and Zhongzheng districts, including sections of Ren 1st Road, Zhongxing Road, and Zhongzheng Road, will experience a water outage from 9 PM on the 26th to 8 PM on the 27th. The outage is expected to last 23 hours, affecting 16,130 households. Areas with pressure reduction include Ren'ai, Xinyi, and Zhongzheng districts, covering sections of Ren 3rd Road, Zhongxing Road, and Zhongzheng Road, affecting 17,998 households.
The 1st District Management Office stated that to reduce inconvenience for users, temporary water stations will be set up in front of the Dongming Community Center, Rufan Community Center, Zhiren Community Center, Xinlv Community Center, Xinyi District Office, PxMart Yi 2nd Store, and Zhengsha Community Center. If additional support from water tankers is needed, separate arrangements will be made.
The 1st District Management Office reminded users to turn off the power to water pumps during the outage to avoid damage. When water supply is first restored for users at the ends of pipelines or in high-elevation areas, delivery may be delayed due to low water pressure. If the project is completed ahead of schedule, water supply will be restored earlier; however, if special difficulties occur during operation, supply may be delayed. The public is asked for their understanding. (Editor: Li Xizhang) 1150421
