Johannesburg – Joburg Water has warned customers of unplanned water interruptions due to supply constraints in over 10 northern Johannesburg suburbs.
Interruptions will affect about 10 suburbs between Monday and Tuesday.
The affected suburbs include Randpark Ridge, Bushhill, Boskruin, Bromhof, Northwold, Boschkop, Honeydew, Sandringham, Glenhazel and Orange Farm are among the areas that can expect to be without water for the two days.
Water interruption started at about 10am on Sunday in Randpark Ridge, Bushhill, Boskruin, Bromhof, Northwold, Boschkop and a portion of Honeydew and will continue through to 10am on Tuesday due to a dummy run of the new system.
Joburg Water has, however, said that during this period some areas will have water as part of the testing of the system.
Sandringham and Glenhazel are also expected to have water interruptions due to installations of a new pipe into the existing reticulation network. Interruptions are expected on Monday between 8am and midnight.
The installation of the new pipe is expected to resume on Tuesday between 8am and midnight.
Orange Farm Extension 1 is also expected to have water interruptions on Tuesday between 8am and 5pm due to an upgrade of the existing water infrastructure.
