The Randwater’s Eikenhof pump station tripped several times yesterday until the early hours of the morning. This impacted their Meredale reservoir and subsequently affected the Commando system.

The Brixton, Hursthill and Crosby systems are all critically low this morning.

Johannesburg Water is monitoring the infrastructure impacted and will provide updates on supply to customers.

Customers in higher lying areas will experience low pressure/ no water during this period.

Alternative water supply will be provided to affected areas, including:

• Sophiatown
• Westbury
• Westdene
• Coronationville

Johannesburg Water urges customers to reduce consumption for critical needs during this period. Customers should report leaks and bursts to reduce the risk of larger water outages.

Johannesburg Water apologises to customers for the inconvenience caused.
