Rand Water will continue carrying out significant maintenance work throughout the month that will affect several municipalities in Gauteng.
This project is essential for extending the lifespan of the water infrastructure and ensuring a reliable supply during peak summer demand.
The City of Tshwane, led by MMC for Utilities and Regional Operations and Coordination, Councillor Themba Fosi, has implemented several interventions to manage the water supply during this period. Fosi emphasised the importance of this maintenance, noting that it includes the replacement of bulk water meters supplying numerous reservoirs in Tshwane.
To mitigate potential disruptions, the City has taken proactive measures. These include restricting reservoir outlets during the shutdown, optimising operations at the Roodeplaat and Rietvlei water treatment plants, and utilising spring water sources.
