The City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation department has urged residents in the areas of Kommetjie, Noordhoek, Scarborough, Ocean View and Masiphumelele to cut down on their water consumption.
Farouk Roberston, Communications officer for the department said they are experiencing some mechanical difficulties with one of the pipes which supplies water to the above mentioned areas.
“We would like to request that residents and water users cut down on their water consumption for the next 24 hours.” said Robertson.
“We only have one pump running to that area and we would like to ensure that the reservoir remains at a suitable level to be able to sustain the water supply to the area.”
Robertson says that the City apologises for any inconvenience experienced.
