Rand Water’s shutdown has begun

South Africa

Johannesburg – Rand Water’s three-day of no water comes into effect on Monday morning.

The water utility is doing maintenance on pipes supplying the Vereeniging purification plant.

Supply to suburbs in southern, northern and western Joburg that get water from the Eikenhof pump station will be reduced by 25 percent.

Water in the city centre is expected to be at about 50 percent.

Services that will be affected include vehicle licensing and testing stations and the payment of traffic fines.

The water cuts will also affect cases scheduled to be heard in the High Court in Johannesburg.

The council’s first post-election council meeting, due this week, has been rescheduled to later this month.
