The Bona Bona Cluster water project, meant to supply eleven villages in Kagisano Molopo Municipality, in the North West, is awaiting electricity connection from Eskom.
Recipients of the project are Bona-Bona, Ga-Motsage, Kagiso, Ka- gisonyane, Kabayatlhose, Khunkwe, Mabone, Mapitiki, Mmaphuti, Kokwane and Metsaneng.
The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) said the project was completed last year in September.
The project was also funded by the Department through the Regional Bulk Infrastructure Grant.
Wisane Mavasa, Spokesperson for the Department of Water and Sanitation, said currently all the villages in that cluster are supplied from boreholes that now have a low yield, due to high water demand.
Hence the water shortages in the villages.
But Geo-hydrological studies conducted by the Department in Bona-Bona cluster, found the area has adequate amounts of groundwater that can augment current water supply and create a bulk water supply system.
