This is for the scheduled replacement of the inlet raw water flow meter.
Areas affected are:
- Hibberdene
- Southport
- Anerley
- Port Shepstone
- Bhobhoyi
- Shelly Beach
- Uvongo
- Margate
- Ramsgate (north and south)
- Gamalakhe

Customers are urged o use water very sparingly during this period as full supply restoration is expected 24 hours post-shutdown for high lying areas. Based on demand, some reservoir outlets will be closed to maintain storage and enable quicker restoration.
Please also note that relief supply, where required, will be prioritised to health facilities due to the limitation of water tankers.
