UPDATE: More water tanks added for Blue Hills and Sun Valley residents
Johannesburg Water’s Blue Hills and Sun Valley are still not getting any water supply from the City of Tshwane, which is in turn not getting any supply from Rand Water.
As a result, the entity has added two more water tanks for the affected residents in Midrand.
This comes after Rand Water was struggling to recover after multiple power failures. According to the bulk water supplier, balancing of the systems was being done on Sunday, 2 July 2023 and as a result, there would be challenges of inconsistent supply.
One of the systems affected is Rand Water’s Brakfontein reservoir, which feeds a City of Tshwane reservoir that supplies Johannesburg Water’s Blue Hills and Sun Valley areas in Midrand. At the moment, there is no water coming into Blue Hills and Sun Valley from Tshwane because the City is not getting enough supply from Rand Water.
Johannesburg Water is providing alternative water supply. Water tankers have been placed at the following locations:
1. African View Blue Hills Complex
2. Blue Hills Shopping Centre
3. Summit View Estate, opposite the Blue Hills Shopping Centre
4. Sasol garage, Blue Hills
5. Kilimanjaro Complex, Blue Hills
6. Spar Summit Road
There is currently no estimated time for recovery. Further details will be provided as they become available.
