The City of Tshwane announced the completion of the much -awaited Klipdrift package water plant on Tuesday.
But frustrations mount at Mandela Park, Kanana and Majaneng, as the plant is yet to be connected to the City’s water supply system, before residents of Hammanskraal can access water.
These residents get their water via roaming tankers.
Dr Nasiphi Moyo, Mayor of Tshwane said positive progress is that some areas now have clean water from the plant’s first phase, such as residents of Marokolong, Ramotse, Babelegi Industrial Park, Mandela Village, Kekana Gardens and Temba’s units 1, 2, 3, 6, D and 20.
The plant feeds these areas with an estimated 12.5 million litres per day.
The second phase will add another 12.5 ML/day capacity.
The project is implemented by Magalies Water.
