JOHANNESBURG – As the country battles with load shedding, parts of Gauteng are set see low water supply next week.
Supply to certain areas in Johannesburg looks set to be disrupted from next Monday as Rand Water works on a pipe that supplies their Vereeniging water purification plant.
Rand Water said it expected a 25% disruption to areas including the south of Johannesburg, the CBD, northern and western areas.
This will be from 5 am next Monday for a period of 54 hours.
Added to this, water supply from the Rand Water Swartkoppies system to the CBD will be also reduced by half.
Rand Water said stationary and roaming water tankers would be made available where feasible to reduce the impact on consumers.
