Residents to Despatch are advised that good progress is being made with the repair of the burst main water pipe, which has seen the water supply to many areas such as Khayamnandi, Reservoir Hills and the central part of town disrupted. Please note that when the fault is repaired, which is expected to take place later this afternoon (Friday), the reservoir and pipes must still fill up, which will take some time. It is expected that a minimum supply of water will reach some affected areas tonight, while all areas will have water tomorrow.
Water tankers have been provided at strategic points.
