In Bishkek, both water and power interruptions are scheduled for October 20. According to the municipal company Bishkekvodokanal, the drinking water supply in the residential complexes 'Ala-Too-1' and 'Ala-Too-2' will be interrupted from 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM.

Additionally, power outages are planned in various districts of Bishkek. Reports indicate that specific streets and areas affected by the power outage will be made available for review. Local energy providers have confirmed this and announced possible further outages in Bishkek and the surrounding regions.

The Bishkek city administration has also released relevant information about the planned water interruptions to help residents prepare for the outages. This has been regarded as an important precautionary measure.

Furthermore, the season for the city's fountains will end on October 20. According to announcements from Tazalyk, the fountains will be turned off on October 21 to prepare them for the winter months. A total of 17 fountain installations fall under the company’s responsibility.

The current water and power interruptions are intended to ensure necessary maintenance of the infrastructure. This could also impact the supply situation in the city, as it has already been announced that there may be interruptions during the work.

Residents of Bishkek are urged to make arrangements based on their individual needs and requirements to avoid possible inconveniences during the outages. Information about specific schedules and affected areas will continue to be provided.
