UPDATE: 24 March 2025 – 13:15
I was on site now.
Valves have been closed, including next to Bakenskop church, to relieve pressure at the site.
Once the site is clear of enough water, the contractor and municipality will decide on the best course of action.
No expected time of completion can be given at this stage.
More information will follow, when available.

Good afternoon, Residents
While working to expose the valves in Rhodes Avenue, a coupling on the pipe appears to have come loose.
The contractor and the municipality is on site.
Some residents will experience little to no water in the short term.
