Rand Water warns of 56-hour water outage in Joburg
Rand Water has warned residents in Johannesburg of possible water disruptions next week due to repair work.
The entity will be implementing a 56-hour diversion of its G20 pipeline to allow City Power to expand its Mondeor Substation in Johannesburg.
The diversion project will start on Thursday, commence at 6am and run until Saturday, 2pm.
The G20 Pipeline supplies water from the Zwartkopies Pumping Station, via Johannesburg South to some parts of Soweto.
Spokesperson Makenosi Maroo said Johannesburg Water will indicate which areas that will be impacted.
"The implementation of the project is in line with the agreement that was signed between the two entities, the diversion of the pipeline and its connection will result in water supply disruptions to areas supplied by this pipeline,
"Rand Water has formally informed the affected customers by issuing a 21-day notice to allow them to implement appropriate contingency measures," she added.
