#WaterUpdate: Another leak delays restoration of water supply

Michael Hawthorne

Restoration of the water supply from the Newton Reservoir has been delayed

The water supply was shut down earlier today due to a pipe burst at the sports field of the Sol Plaatje University.

According to a report by DA Councilor Ockert Fourie, whilst carrying out repairs, another leak was discovered by the team which prolonged repairs to the pipeline.

Fourie says the water supply should however be restored within the next 30 to 45 minutes.
