This will result in the disruption of the water supply to these areas on Wednesday, 10 February 2021 from 19:00 until 02:00 the following morning.

Residents are however advised to prepare, where possible, by storing water in clean, sealed containers.

Zero pressure tests are part of the City’s rollout of pressure management infrastructure. Advanced pressure management allows the City to reduce pressure fluctuations in the network that create stress on pipes over time. This reduces the likelihood of leaks and bursts. The test is done to determine if there are any unmapped inflows into an area to inform the calibration of a pressure reducing valve, which will be installed at a later date.

Residents are also advised to make sure that their taps are left in the closed position during this period to prevent any water loss and/or damage when the supply is restored.

The City regrets any inconvenience caused, however this work is necessary to ensure water supply remains reliable.
