The City of Tshwane has announced that on Thursday Rand Water will implement a major planned shutdown of water supply to reservoirs.
“The water utilitys team of technicians will conduct a tie-in of the newly installed pipeline to the existing S4 pipeline,” said the City to Tshwane.
The 53-hour water shutdown is planned to start at 17h00 on Thursday and will end at 22h00 on Saturday, 13 August 2022.
“Residents are urged to use water sparingly during this time to prevent reservoirs from running dry,” said the City of Tshwane.
“They should also ensure that they store sufficient water that will sustain them for the duration of the shutdown.”
