Rand water warns of water shortage this weekend

The residents of Johannesburg are being warned of major water cuts this weekend which will affect parts of the city.

Rand Water will cut supply to large parts of western and northern Johannesburg from 1pm on Saturday afternoon.

 “Our bulk water supplier is planning a major shutdown that is expected to last for 30 hours, from 1pm on 27 February to 28 February 2021 to replace a 800mm valve and bypass valve,” said Rand water in a statement.

Areas that will be affected include Coronationville, Westdene, Newlands, Westbury, Melville, Auckland Park, Greenside, and Albertville.

“We urge all residents in the listed arrears to plan accordingly,”

Johannesburg Water has planned to place water tanks to assist when the reservoir levels reach critical levels to minimize the impact.
