Aeroton reservoir maintenance to impact parts of Soweto and southern suburbs
Johannesburg Water will be conducting a planned maintenance at the Aeroton reservoir from 10:00 on Friday, 2 February until 20:00 on Friday, 9 February.
The maintenance, which is for the purpose of conducting a structural assessment and cleaning at the reservoir, will affect parts of Soweto and southern suburbs, including
Aeroton, Ormonde, Ormonde View, Orlando East and West, Diepkloof, Diepkloof extension, Diepkloof extensions 2 and 10, as well as the Baragwanath and Doctor SK Matseke Hospitals.
This is part of routine maintenance work, which is crucial to ensure continuity of water supply, improved services to customers, as well as to minimise water losses.
During this time, customers should expect low pressure to no water, particularly in high-lying areas. Alternative water supply will be provided through water tankers, especially in high-lying areas, as and when necessary.
Once the maintenance is completed on the Friday, all the reservoirs will be steadily filled over the weekend and water supply should be stable again by the start of the new week.
