Mogale City Water Services plead with residents to use water sparingly

Reservoir levels remain very low in K'dorp.

City Power has completed repairs at the Eikenhof Substation and 100% of the power supply to Rand West has been restored.

In a statement released by Mogale City Water Services, Rand Water was given the green light to pump water at full capacity at 23:30 last night, March 5 and has commenced pumping water to various municipality user reservoir depots including Mogale City.

Mogale City’s communication officer Refilwe Mahlangu stated although water supply has been restored in some parts of the city, Mogale’s reservoir levels remain very low as water demand is extremely high and thus immediately consumed when dispensed.

“We anticipate as Rand Water continues to pump, our supply to affected areas will slowly improve as the water reaches the required levels for optimal pressure to be restored. However, residents in higher lying areas will unfortunately experience the outage for a prolonged period as our system gradually recovers.”

She added they (Water Services) still require all residents’ assistance and support by using water sparingly as the reservoirs fill up to the required levels.

“We once again thank all affected residents and businesses for their patience and understanding for the duration of the interruption,” Mahlangu concluded.
