The Water Supplies Department has completed urgent repairs in the Ping Che area after mobilising around 200 workers through the night.
Crews replaced aged bitumen-coated pipes with temporary pipes, which were successfully connected to underground mains.
Drinking and flushing water was suspended overnight at 68 villages near Sha Tau Kok Road, as well as Queen's Hill Estate and San Lai Garden.
Supplies were gradually restored in the morning.
Some users observed cloudy water initially after resumption, but the Water Supplies Department confirmed this came from trapped air bubbles in pipes and was normal and temporary.
