City advises of water supply disruption in the Welgelegen area

25 January 2021

The City’s Water and Sanitation Department will be installing a smart pressure reducing valve on the main water supply in the Welgelegen area on Thursday 28 January 2021. Read more below:

This will result in the disruption of the water supply on Thursday 28 January 2021 from 11:00 until 16:00 in the Welgelegen area between Plattekloof Road, Rothschild Boulevard, Giel Basson Drive, Mika Street, Robyn Close and Ametis Close. 

Residents are however advised to prepare, where possible, by storing water in clean sealed containers in advance and to make sure that their taps are left in the closed position during this period to prevent any water loss and/or water damage when the supply is restored.

The City regrets any inconvenience caused, however this device will reduce the possibility of pipe bursts, supply disruptions and water wastage in future.
