As Eskom announced Stage 4 load shedding as from 09:00 this morning (March 9), the City of Ekurhuleni will comply with this directive and follow the existing load shedding schedules available on the City’s website.

Customers need to take note that the City’s technicians will be under severe pressure to switch on and off multiple circuits every two hours.

As such, under these difficult constraints, individual customer queries may not be prioritised until the grid is stable.

In addition, customers may also expect extended delays in restoring power after load shedding as it is raining across the City. The City of Ekurhuleni apologised for the inconvenience caused.
