“This work has been delayed in part to enable the maintenance team to prepare adequately as well as to allow the residents to store sufficient water in advance for domestic use during this period.
“Residents are also kindly requested to ensure that their taps are closed during this period to prevent any water loss and/or damage when the water supply is restored,” the City of Cape Town said.
