We are currently experiencing excessive water demand in Lenasia Hospital Hills and Lenasia High Level Reservoirs. We will be closing these two reservoirs in order to build water storage capacity that will enable water supply. We anticipate to open at 17H30 this Evening.
This will affect water supply to the following areas: Lenasia South, Zakarya Park, Vlakfontein, Lehay, Migson Manor, Hospital Hills and Finetown areas.
We urge community members who will need water during the closure period to store water that is currently available into containers.
We appeal to all to use water sparingly and to remind them that level one water restrictions are still in place. Watering of gardens is not allowed between 6 am and 6 pm in summer months (1 Sept to 31 March) and furthermore, it is not allowed to wash paved areas and driveway using hosepipes.
Residents are encouraged to subscribe on our website, to our SMS notification service for alerts on planned or unplanned service interruptions. More information can be obtained on twitter: @jhbwater; Facebook: Johannesburg Water and our website.
