City advises of water supply disruption in the Khayelitsha Low Zone area

28 May 2022

Residents of Khayelitsha's Low Zone Area should expect water supply disruptions on Tuesday night, 31 May 2022.

​Zero-pressure testing is part of the installation process for pressure management technology. Tests are done to see if there are any unmapped inflows that need to be taken into account before smart pressure reducing valves are installed. 

Residents are kindly advised to store water in clean, sealed containers for use during this period and to ensure that their taps are closed to avoid water loss and/or damage when the supply is restored. 
 
This work forms part of the City’s Water Demand Management Strategy. Managing water pressure more effectively reduces the possibility of pipe bursts and water wastage.
 
The City regrets any inconvenience caused.

End
