The city of Cape Town has announced that there will be a temporary interruption of electricity supply in the Claremont CBD.

Charles Kadalie Manager of Public Lighting City of Cape Town says this is because of the upgrading of the equipment at the Newlands Main substation.

There is an increasing demand over electricity in the area.

Customers are advised to treat electricity installations as live for the full duration of the interruption as the electricity supply may be restored at any time without warning.

This will occur from 10 p.m. on Saturday 22 November until eight am on Sunday.

The areas that will be affected will be:

Werdmuller Centre
Stanhope Centre
Thelma Road
Cavendish Square
Protea Road
Corwen Street
Hawthorn Road
Mosque Lane
“There have been lots of developments in Claremont” said Kadalie,

“These upgrades will cater for the new developments and additional power requirements in the area”
