Monitoring of JW Infrastructure impacted by Rand Water supply

Our bulk supplier, Rand Water experienced yet another power failure at the Eikenhof pump station from City Power from midnight until 5am this morning.

This impacted the Hursthill Reservoirs which were still on recovering mode post the Thursday power failure at the Lethabo raw water pump station.

Customers in the higher lying areas of the Hursthill Reservoir feed may experience no water/ inconsistent supply. The Crosby and Brixton systems were also affected and currently at low level but stable at the moment.

Customers should report leaks and bursts in the area which may impact on the recovery of the system.

Johannesburg Water apologises to customers for the inconvenience caused.
