Interruption Of Water Supply From The Northern Aqueduct
ETHEKWINI NEWSFLASH FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 18 JUNE 2023
The Municipality is aware of the interruption of water supply in areas supplied through the Northern Aqueduct.
The interruption is due to constrained supply from Umgeni’s Durban Heights Water Works.
Interventions to improve water levels have commenced. This includes closing off reservoir outlets at night and reopening them in the morning to build the required capacity to supply communities.
System recovery is expected to take place over the next two to four days, depending on the demand.
Water tankers will in the meantime supply affected communities.
The Municipality apologises for the inconvenience caused.
For more information regarding water supply, the public can call the toll-free number 080 311 1111 or use the eThekwini Water and Sanitation WhatsApp number: 073 1483 477. Alternatively, email: Eservices@durban.gov.za
