Almaty authorities vow to rectify the water shortage issue, ensuring resolution by year's end.
In the heart of Almaty, Kazakhstan, the Alga Bas residential complex and the wider Alatau district are grappling with ongoing water supply problems. According to recent reports, a booster station for water supply in the Alga Bas complex is currently not functioning, exacerbating the issue.
Residents of the complex, including vulnerable individuals such as children, the elderly, and disabled people, have been affected by severe water supply issues over the last three years, particularly during the summer months. The communal enterprise has noted that the decrease in water pressure in the pipes is due to mass irrigation in the district.
Approximately 250 families in these areas have been impacted by the water shortage. The management of the Alga Bas residential complex is responsible for restoring the operation of the booster station to ensure a stable water supply. However, no updates regarding the booster station's status have been provided.
Meanwhile, the Alatau district is operating at its maximum water capacity. To address the water shortage problem, a project is underway to switch the engineering networks of the district to water pipelines supplying water from TEC-2. This project is scheduled to be implemented in the fourth quarter of this year.
However, it's unclear whether the water supply issues in the Alga Bas residential complex will be resolved as part of this new project. The company is also developing a separate project to change the water supply scheme for the western part of the Alatau district.
As of now, no tentative resolution dates for the water supply issues in the Alatau district or Alga Bas residential complex have been announced. For the most accurate and up-to-date details on these matters, residents are advised to consult the official Almaty Su company website or customer service channels, as well as recent local Almaty municipal government announcements or public utility bulletins.
