New pipelines could bring relief to water starved South Pattaya neighborhoods
PATTAYA:--The Provincial Waterworks Authority says a new pipeline set to come online soon should reduce water shortages faced by South Pattaya residents.

The pipe connecting the Mabprachan Reservoir with the Chaknok water-processing station is in the final inspection stages and will become yet another source of water for the thirsty city.

The PWA admits that residents and businesses on Thepprasit Road, and sois Chaiyapruek, Wat Bunkanchanaram, and Yansangwararam in South Pattaya have faced sporadic water shortages, due both to broken pipes and geography.

Residents there, however, say the problem has been more chronic than sporadic.

Piyada Pleedsai, who operates a restaurant opposite the Mae Loe Market, complained to the Pattaya Mail about repeated outages lasting for days. She said the increasing cost of buying water has been a burden on her and her neighbors.

“Almost every month the water stops,” the 34-year-old said. “Some months it is four days in a row or even an entire week. Some months there is no water for two weeks.”
