Planned Chelsea Reservoir Shutdown

By

The Municipality wishes to notify residents that the City requires a 48-hour shutdown of the Chelsea reservoir to perform critical drought relief work.

The shutdown is scheduled for Tuesday, 15 February 2022. This will allow the maintenance team to connect the suction pipeline for the new KwaNobuhle pumpstation to the 900mm pipeline of the Chelsea reservoir.

This shutdown will also allow the Municipality to complete other critical tasks that may aid in the relief of the drought in the KwaNobuhle area.

To safely complete the aforementioned work, the Chelsea reservoir must be emptied.

While we have made every effort to ensure that water is maintained in the majority of areas, we anticipate that some areas may experience water outages during this time.

Residents may experience low water pressure or water disruptions in the following areas:

  1. Rowallan Park
  2. Francis Evatt Park
  3. Hunters Retreat
  4. Bay West
  5. Parsonsvlei / Westbrook
  6. Morningside
  7. Kabega Park
  8. Sherwood
  9. Westering
  10. Cotswold
  11. Helenvale
  12. Malabar
  13. Parts of Schauderville
  14. Framesby
  15. Sunridge Park
  16. Parts of Lorraine
  17. Parts of Theescombe
  18. Kamma Park

If necessary, water tankers will be dispatched, and their locations will be communicated via social media. Additional information can be obtained by calling the Service Delivery Call Centre at 0800 20 50 50.
