UPDATE ON PARTS OF THE CITY EXPERIENCING DISRUPTIONS DUE TO DEPLETED STORAGE LEVEL AT EMERALD RESERVOIR - April 14, 2021
The City would like to update residents on the water disruptions some areas are experiencing. We are still currently unable to supply water to a large area of the Metro due to the depleted storage level at Emerald Hill Reservoir.
Last night's fault at the Churchill Water Treatment Works has since been repaired at 16H00 on 13 April 2021, however the system has failed to recover and Emeraldhill reservoir and is currently at 1,3%.
With day peak demand and draw off, the system is not likely to recover today. The system is vulnerable due to the ongoing drought and water production deficit and therefore we are not able to provide 100% assurance that water will be restored sooner.
At this stage, no time frames are available and the water provision continuity plan will be through water trucks.
Areas that will be experiencing water disruptions / low pressure are currently:
1. Walmer 1st to 6th Avenue
2. Walmer Township, Gqeberha
3. Glen Hurd
4. Newton Park
5. Schauderville
6. Mangold Park
7. Greenacres
8. Perridgevale
9. Adcockvale
10. Parsons Hill
11. Glendinningvale
12. Mill Park
13. Linkside
14. Mount Croix
15. Greenacres Hospital
16. St George's Hospital
17. Richmond Hill
18. High lying areas of Central
19. Miramar
20. Greenshields Park
21. Walmer Heights
Water trucks have been deployed to the locations below. Kindly note that the trucks may leave to fill up however, they will return to these locations. More locations will be added during the course of the day.
1. Builders Warehouse, Walmer heights

Residents are urged to reduce consumption and only use water for essential purposes

The situation will be monitored and water tankers will be made available if reservoir storage levels deplete. Their positions will be communicated throughout social media and can also be enquired from 0800205050.
