Media Statement
Water Restrictions in the City of Johannesburg
Rand Water has indicated that their distribution network is currently under severe pressure whereby the water demand consistently exceeds the water supply. The water Entity requested Johannesburg Water to implement their water restrictions to prevent a situation where both supply systems collapse and Johannesburg Water has responded by restricting many of its reservoirs by between 20 – 45%.
Some areas fed from the reservoirs below that have been restricted will experience low pressure to no water and some will not be affected at all.
Alternative water supply will be rolled out to areas that get affected due to these restrictions and tanker supply will be rolled out as and when required.
Johannesburg Water reservoirs restricted are:
- Rem Allandale
- President Park Reservoir No2
- Halfway House South
- Diepsloot Town
