Although the Vaaldam is full and some sluice gates have been opened, water restrictions in Gauteng have not been lifted yet.
Contradictory reports about the restrictions have been doing the rounds since the weekend, some saying water restrictions have been lifted with immediate effect.
Themba Gadebe, spokesman for the metro, confirmed that water restrictions in Ekurhuleni – and the rest of Gauteng – are still in place.
“Water restrictions remain in place until the lifting thereof has been officially published in the Government Gazette. When such a time comes, residents of Ekurhuleni will be informed,” he said earlier this week.
