Unplanned maintenance: Commando System

There is an unplanned maintenance that is scheduled for Tuesday, 23 July 2024.

The maintenance will be for the purpose of replacing the non-return valve to the Crosby Reservoir. The work is scheduled to take place for 12 hours, starting from 06:00 to 18:00. Thereafter, the system will gradually improve overnight.

The Commando System will be affected as follows:
•Brixton Reservoir and Tower
There will be no pumping to both the Brixton Reservoir and Tower. Both the Reservoir and Tower will supply normally in the morning. Poor pressure to no water will be experienced by customers as the reservoir gets depleted.
•Crosby Reservoir
The reservoir will operate as per normal in the morning and poor pressure to no water can be expected as the reservoir gets depleted.
•Hursthill 1 and 2 Reservoirs
Both reservoirs will operate normally as per the current configuration and status. However, due to the interconnected nature of the systems, poor pressure will be expected in Hursthill 1 reservoir zone.

Areas fed by the Commando System.
