🚱 Water Supply Disruptions #NoDryTapsJoburg
7 September 2025 15h20 - Cllr Devon Steenkamp
Eikenhof Pump Station Under Strain
Joburg Water has informed us that Rand Water is experiencing power dips, causing the Eikenhof Pump Station to operate at only 75% capacity.
This reduced output is now affecting several Joburg Water reservoirs, which is starting to result in:
Low water pressure and No water supply in certain areas
Joburg Water is currently awaiting feedback from Rand Water on when the system will be stabilised.
If you are experiencing low pressure or no water, please notify me with your address and time so I can escalate this directly to Joburg Water.
Kindly store water where possible.
Kind regards,
Cllr Devon Steenkamp

The outlet was reopened this morning and water will slowly return to pipes.
