Households in parts of Hong Kong’s Eastern district, including Sai Wan Ho, Shau Kei Wan, Aldrich Bay, and the area from A Kung Ngam Road to Island Garden, lost water supply after a pipe burst on October 27 at 11 am. The Water Supplies Department confirmed that construction work by a Highways Department contractor was suspected to be the cause of the incident. Authorities are repairing the damage and aim to restore water supply before midnight. A video circulating on social media showed water gushing from the ground near a bus stop with an excavator nearby at the worksite. Eastern district councillor Wong Chi-chueng confirmed the location of the burst pipe outside 312 Shau Kei Wan Road.
