​

The work involves the servicing of its turbines and is expected to take 48 hours to complete.

This will disrupt the water supply to parts of the Drakenstein and Stellenbosch Municipalities and they have been informed accordingly.

The northern areas of Bloekoembos and Wallacedene will also be affected by the temporary shutdown and will result in these areas receiving water at lower than usual water pressure.

Residents are kindly requested to minimise their water consumption while work is in progress. 

The City sincerely regrets any inconvenience caused, but it is imperative that it enhances its water supply infrastructure to benefit residents in these areas.
