IPOH: The roadway along Jalan Peh Kee Koh in Jalan Pasar Pinji will certainly be shut beginning Monday (Sept 30) for a below ground water drainage job, which is anticipated to take 3 to 4 weeks to finish.
Pasar Pinji assemblymen Goh See Hua claimed the job intends to attend to the clogged up drains pipes in the location, which has actually been a problem for the previous 8 to 10 years.
“The restaurants in this area have been pouring oil into the drains which causes blockages and prevents proper water flow. We believe the main issue lies in the underground drainage system,” he informed the press reporters after the website browse through at Jalan Peh Kee Koh (Sept 27).
“The Ipoh City Council (MBI) regularly does the cleaning of the drains here, however the next day it turns out to be clogged,” he claimed.
He included that regardless of normal cleansing by the Ipoh City Council (MBI), the drains pipes ended up being clogged up once again the following day, triggering poor smells and water circulation problems at the entry of the dining establishments.
“We have received complaints from the public, nearby restaurants and tourists, as this area is a popular food destination.
“It is bad to leave such a problem unsettled, particularly as we concentrate on Perak Tourism 2024,” he added.
“Therefore, we will certainly examine what is incorrect at the below ground water drainage and set up oil catches at the drains pipes right here to strain waste and protect against obstructions.
“I have allocated approximately RM30,000 for this project. We hope to see a smooth flow,” he claimed.
