​Water consumption was at 647 million litres per day for the same period. This is down by 29 million litres per day since the last update two weeks ago, when it stood at 676 million litres per day. It was not possible to complete last week’s dam levels update due to a COVID-19 infection at the office where this is normally compiled. 

‘The South African Weather Service has predicted higher than average rainfall in our part of the country this year, and with this in mind we are cautiously optimistic that the rains of last week are a sign of things to come,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Water and Waste, Alderman Xanthea Limberg.
