CoE call for water-saving measures as supply is low

Technical teams continue to monitor water infrastructure with special attention to certain areas including Primrose and Germiston.

City of Ekurhuleni urges residents and businesses to implement water-saving measures as work continues to increase water storage levels in some areas.

“Water supply has been interrupted in multiple areas due to low supply from the bulk supplier, Rand Water, and of late, increased demand from customers,” said CoE spokesperson Zweli Dlamini.

He added that technicians are working to maintain supply to residents during the peak hours.

“The more we save water by implementing simple interventions daily, we reduce the threat of water cuts in the future.”

The city identified supply zones that are the highest contributors to its water demand.
