Pipe Replacement Programme

Johannesburg Water has implemented a pipe replacement programme over the past five years. Going forward into the next five years, Johannesburg Water plans to replace a further 633 km of water pipes. In replacing these pipes the burst frequencies will reduce and water losses will be minimised.

Water is a scarce commodity, and Johannesburg Water is committed to providing a sustainable water and sanitation supply to all residents of the City. Level 1 water restrictions are still in place and will be enforced by fines to consumers who contravened the Water Services By-law, and consumers are urged to report non-compliance by phoning the JMPD 24/7 hotline on 011 758 9650.
