Rand Water Eikenhof Pump station
Johannesburg Water wishes to inform residents that due to a power failure at Rand Water’s Vereeniging purification works, water supply to the Rand Water Eikenhof pump station and reservoir has been affected.
This unanticipated incident will affect the Hursthill, Brixton and Crosby reservoirs considerably as they are fed from the Eikenhof system.
The recovery of the JW reservoirs will take place during the night when demand for water is low and we expect full restoration in approximately 72 hours. We are monitoring the supply to critical customers such hospitals in the affected areas and our technical team is ready to assist should a need arise.
Customers in higher lying areas will experience no water or poor pressure during the recovery period. We urge customers to use water sparingly at this time. Arrangements are being made to cater for customers in Sophiatown and Coronationville.
More information will be available for residents on our social media pages.

We are currently experiencing high water demand in Lenasia High Level areas which are Zakariya Park, Vlakfontein, Lehae, Lenasia South ext 1, Hospital Hills. The reservoir is currently very low and the demand also impacts on Hospital Hill Reservoir. Some high areas might be affected by low pressure to no water. If the demand is not reduced we will have to close the reservoir to improve the storage.
