The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality is currently experiencing difficulties supplying water to certain storage reservoirs due to a fault on the electrical supply at the Elandsjagt WTW. This places the system at risk as storage conditions remain low due to ongoing drought. Contractors are currently assessing requirements to execute repairs.
Areas that could experience low pressure or disruptions include:
- Parts of Walmer
- Walmer Downs
- Mangold Park
- Glen Hurd
- Newton Park
- Greenacres
- Parts of Cotsworld
- Parts of Schauderville
- Linkside
- Mill Park
- Parts of Central
- Mount Croix
- Perridgevale
- Deal party
- North End
- Sydenham
The situation will be monitored and water tankers will be made available if reservoir storage levels deplete, their positions will be communicated throughout social media and can also be enquired from 0800205050. Consumers are requested to use water sparingly and not to stockpile, this will accelerate the depletion of storage.
