Water supply disruptions expected in Sandton this evening
Customers in Sandton and surrounding areas should expect water pressure fluctuations this evening as Joburg Water undertakes crucial demand measures to ensure ongoing supply.
Joburg Water has announced that the Sandton meters will be temporarily shut down this evening, June 5, from 18:00 until 05:00 on June 6.
According to Johannesburg Water, the closure is part of a strategic effort to manage water demand across the city, particularly in areas experiencing pressure on the water supply system.
The Linbro Park and Marlboro direct feeds will be affected the most during these interventions, and all customers fed by the Sandton system may experience poor pressure to no water overnight.
