Gas supply in Ashulia and surrounding areas will be suspended for 16 hours on Friday, Titas Gas Authority said.

The supply will be halted from 8:00am to midnight due to pipeline relocation work for Section-3 of the Dhaka-Ashulia Elevated Expressway, according to a press release.

The suspension will affect both sides of the road from Ashulia TBS to Bypail, including Dhaka EPZ, Malancha Power Plant, Kashimpur, Saradagang, Haji Market, Sripur, Chandra, Nabinagar, Savar Cantonment, Kathgara, Zirabo, Gazirchat, Nayapara, Dewan Idris Road, Bolibhadrapur, Palli Bidyut, and all classes of customers.

The company also warned that gas pressure in nearby areas may be lower than usual during this time and apologized for the temporary inconvenience.
