Gwangju City "Buk-gu Usan, Duam, and Junghung-dong, Beware of Cloudy Water"

Water Pipe Cleaning Work from 10 PM on the 12th to 7 AM on the 13th

Gwangju Metropolitan City has warned that cloudy water may come out due to water pipe cleaning work in the Usan-dong, Duam-dong, and Junghung-dong areas of Buk-gu.

The Gwangju Metropolitan Waterworks Headquarters announced on the 11th that from 10 PM on the 12th to 7 AM on the 13th, water pipes in Usan-dong, Duam-dong (1-dong, 2-dong), and Junghung-dong (2-dong, 3-dong) in Buk-gu will be cleaned.

This water pipe cleaning was carried out to prepare for the increased water usage due to the large-scale apartment complexes being built recently in the Buk-gu area as part of redevelopment projects.

During the pipe cleaning, an increase in flow velocity inside the pipes is expected to cause cloudy water. While the cloudy water does not affect bathroom use, it should not be used for drinking.

The Gwangju Waterworks Headquarters plans to complete the pipe cleaning by 7 AM and supply clear water to citizens.

Park Jong-o, Director of the Northeast Waterworks Office, said, “During the pipe cleaning work, please refrain from using tap water as much as possible, and when using it for the first time on the morning of the 13th, check for any foreign substances before use.”
