On Saturday, 13 April 2024, the City of Tshwane’s team of plumbers will install an 80 mm water meter on a bulk pipeline in Muckleneuk, along Justice Mahommed Street.
This essential work is scheduled to last eight hours from 08:00 until 16:00 and will lead to a water supply interruption in the following areas:
- Groenkloof
- Muckleneuk
- Nieuw Muckleneuk
- Parts of Brooklyn (William, Mackenzie, Olivier, Nicolson and Marais Streets)
The City apologises for the inconvenience that may be caused as a result of the water supply interruption.
Residents are urged to store enough water for household purposes during this period.
Residents are also urged to continue to make the following water-conservation measures part of their normal lifestyle:
- Do not water or irrigate gardens with hosepipes or sprinkler systems between 06:00 and 18:00.
- Do not wash vehicles with hosepipes.
- Do not fill swimming pools.
- Install a low-flow shower head and tap aerators where possible.
- Use a dual-flush toilet cistern.
- Plant indigenous or drought-resistant shrubs in the garden.
- Use a broom instead of a hosepipe when cleaning driveways or patios.
- Collect rainwater to reuse in the garden or wash the car.
- Cover the swimming pool to reduce water evaporation.
- Take a short shower rather than a bath.
- Close a running tap while brushing teeth or shaving.
- Regularly check toilets and taps for leaks.
Residents are urged to continue using grey water to water gardens and flush toilets. Where possible, water-saving devices should be installed.
