Keeping
residents updated: Lee (second from left) during a briefing with Sungai
Chua residents representatives on the construction of the new sewerage
system.
KAJANG will soon have a new sewerage system.
The current system is more than 15 years old and needs to be upgraded.
The upgrade, which began two years ago, will also see a centralised sewage treatment plant near Kampung Simpang Balak.
Hulu Langat MCA chairman Datuk Jeffrey Lee said the new sewerage system would make it easier for inspection and maintenance.
Lee held a briefing for Sungai Chua residents recently as the second
phase of the project would start soon and would affect the residents in
the area.
“The first phase was focused on residential areas and the second phase will focus on the town and industrial areas,” he said.
Other upgrades included closing down 58 sewage plants in Kajang and building nine new plants.
The nine new plants will be built in Taman Villa Heights, Taman Restu, Taman Kajang Baru, Taman Saga Mas, Taman Maju, Taman Desa Meringin, Taman Seri Kenari, Taman Mewah Indah and Taman Kajang Ria.
The new sewage pipe system is 30km long and has been designed to cater for future developments.
“The upgrade is needed to ensure less pollution and it will help to solve water issues in the area,” said Lee.
He explained that with the new centralised sewage treatment plant, a higher quality of water would be able to flow back into Sungai Langat.
Residents around Sungai Chua can expect the project to start by mid-October and the project will take about two years to complete.
Lee said there would be water disruption in the affected areas but assured that immediate action would be taken.
He added that the project by the Government would benefit Kajang residents.
“Residents facing any problem from the construction work can lodge a complaint through their residents associations.
The sewerage system upgrading project is under the Energy, Green Technology and Water Ministry with Sri Tinggi Sdn Bhd as the contractor.
