The City of Ekurhuleni has revised its estimated restoration time (ERT) for power supply in Pomona, Bredell, and parts of Glen Marais to 18:30 this evening.

According to the latest update from the city, additional time is required to complete extensive repair work on the affected infrastructure.

Large parts of these areas have been without power since Friday evening, leaving residents frustrated and calling for urgent action.
