POLOKWANE – According to a statement by the Polokwane Municipality, a 400mm pipe has to be replaced and hence, the mentioned areas will not have water supply.
The municipality says their team is busy onsite with the replacement of the damaged pipe but they are unsure of how long it will take to replace.
“Repairs will take longer due to the size of the pipe and residents are urged to use water sparingly,” they urged.
Water related issues can be reported to the municipality on the following numbers 015 290 2376/2473.
