The Water and Sanitation Department is conducting emergency repairs to its 600mm diameter water main supplying the areas from Grassy Park up to and including Muizenberg which will result in low water pressure or no water supply.
The repairs involves the replacement of a faulty critical valve and necessitated the shutdown of the water supply main to enable the maintenance team to depressurise the pipeline for them to effect the repairs.
The repairs are expected to be completed by 8pm tonight.
Residents are requested to minimise their water consumption during the period of the repairs to reduce the strain on the water supply to these areas.
