@CityPowerJhb How come they are only clearing the area now? This was a manufactured fault because surely city parks are not so incompetent that they can't fell a tree in a certain direction
English

@CityPowerJhb Bullshit unwavering commitment, you take 4 hours to find the problem, 4 hours to make an excuse, let night night come so you can say the workers can't work in the conditions, postpone it till the morning. Next day you make more excuses and lies, if they've been there since 6am

*Outage Update – Kloofendal Substation, Roodepoort*
Kloofendal Substation in Roodepoort Experiences Outage
The Kloofendal 88kV substation, supplied by the Roodetown substation via a double circuit 88kV transmission line, experienced an outage. This circuit also supplies power to Wilropark, Peter Rd, and Christian de Wet substations, all of which are affected.
On April 12, 2024, while City Parks were removing trees along the 88kV lines, an unfortunate incident occurred: a tree fell onto the transmission lines, causing damage to both circuits.
Efforts began yesterday to clear the damaged lines and remove trees to prevent further damage. However, due to the challenging terrain and associated risks, work ceased at 22:00 last night.
Work resumed at 06:00 this morning, with reconstruction of the lines in progress. It is anticipated that the first circuit will be ready for restoration by this afternoon.
The following areas are affected:
Horison, Horison View, Florida Park, Georgia, Roodekraans, Wilropark, Allen’s nek, Heldekruin, Eagle Canyon, Ruimsig, Wilgeheiwel, Constantia Kloof, Strubensvalley, Weltevredenpark, Honeydew, and surrounding areas.
Further details will be provided.
ENDS

@CityPowerJhb Where the fuck is the proof they worked at all last night to restore block 11, no photos were ever posted only of the cables that took you 4 hours to find the issue it's been 21 hours and yet you can't give proof or a solid update. This is a manufactured fault
