Sandton meters to be closed tonight as part of water demand management
As part of water demand management efforts, Johannesburg Water will be closing the Sandton meters tonight, Wednesday 23 October, from 19:00 until 05:00 tomorrow morning.
This is to ensure equal water supply distribution to struggling systems and areas within the Johannesburg Water network.
The Linbro Park and Marlboro direct feeds will be affected the most during these interventions, and all customers fed by the Sandton System may experience poor pressure to no water overnight. Once the meter is reopened in the morning, it will take several hours for the system to fully recover.
Areas affected by the Sandton System:
Residents are requested to observe level 1 water restrictions which are implemented from 1 September 2024 to 31 March 2025. These restrictions prohibit the use of hosepipes to water gardens, wash cars, clean driveways, and fill up swimming pools and water features between 06:00 and 18:00.
