There will be no water supply in the evenings this week in the Sol Plaatje Local Municipality.
This is due to a fault at the main Riverton abstraction pump.
This is the pump that draws water from the Vaal River.
“The Sol Plaatje Local Municipality will from Sunday evening at 8pm to 5am, implement a weeklong Nightly Water Supply Interruption said Thabo Mothibi, Spokesperson of the Sol Plaatje Municipality.
He said a new pump will be installed this week.
Once the desired water production volumes are achieved at the purification plants, the reservoirs will be replenished to full carrying capacity.
The interruption is set to be lifted next Sunday, 11 Aug 2024.
