Most Johannesburg Water systems are showing improvements due to adequate supply, however; some continue to be affected by high demand and poor incoming supply.

Commando system:
Crosby and Hursthill 2 reservoirs remain critically low. Poor pressure to no water could be experienced in high-lying areas.
Hursthill 1 reservoir has been reconfigured to boost supply. Johannesburg Water continues to monitor the system and provide alternate water supply to affected areas.

Illovo tower:
Power was restored overnight, and pumping has resumed. The tower is recovering and supplying fairly.
Affected areas: https://www.johannesburgwater.co.za/illovo-tower/

Honeydew reservoir:
The system is low resulting in low pressure to no water. Investigations are underway with some intervention work planned for early next week.

Alternative water supply will be provided to affected areas.
