UPDATE: 4 May 2026 – 14:00
⚠️ PLANNED WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION – TUESDAY, 05 MAY 2026, 14:00 TO 20:00
Residents, especially those in high-lying areas, are hereby informed of a planned water supply interruption scheduled as follows:
Date: Tuesday, 5 May 2026
Time: 14:00 to 20:00
Reason: Pumps at the Newton Reservoirs Complex will be switched off to allow for the replacement of a faulty/leaking flange adaptor on the newly installed valve at the 91-megalitre reservoir within the complex.
Impact: The CBD will be most affected by the interruption. Other areas may experience low water pressure during this time.
We thank you for your cooperation as we repair and refurbish our bulk water supply infrastructure.
Kind regards,
