Those with water supply are urged to use it sparingly.
POLOKWANE – A pipe burst along Munnik Avenue will leave some parts of the city without water supply.
“North View, Mall of the North and surrounding areas are experiencing water shortages due to the pipe burst. Polokwane Municipality’s water team is working on fixing the pipe and restoring water supply to all affected areas,” a statement by municipal spokesperson Thipa Selala reads.
