Randjieslaagte Reservoir Update
The installation and repairs of the leaking flange has been completed; however, the reservoir will remain on bypass for the second stage of replacement of the 10m length steel pipe.

Affected areas include: Bramley, Glenhazel, Sunningdale, Lombardy East and West, Kew, and parts of Alex. Alternative water supply will be provided to the affected customers.
