The Durban Heights Water Treatment Works will undergo an 18-hour shutdown commencing at 01:00 am on Tuesday, 21 November until 20:00 on the same day.<\/p>\n

This is to allow for the removal of a steel plate that was previously installed on Aqueduct 2 to isolate the flow of water while repairs were in progress.<\/p>\n

The shutdown will also include the installation of a double isolation facility to enable the contractor undertaking the repairs to continue working on the Aqueduct in preparation for its recommissioning in December this year. By undertaking the shutdown now, uMngeni-uThukela aims to minimise the possibility of water interruptions ahead of the start of the busy festive season.<\/p>\n

This critical exercise forms part of uMngeni-uThukela\u2019s efforts to restore infrastructure that was damaged during the floods in April 2022.<\/p>\n

uMngeni-uThukela Water is working closely with the eThekwini Municipality\u2019s Water and Sanitation Department to minimise the shutdown’s impacts.<\/p>\n

Both organisations will constantly monitor water levels at reservoirs during the shutdown so they do not dip below the set points.<\/p>\n

Some parts of Durban will experience a reduction in pressure and water interruptions on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

To minimise this impact, we urge the public to use water sparingly and delay activities that consume additional water such as washing of cars, watering gardens, or filling up swimming pools during this time.<\/p>\n

The following areas that are supplied by the Durban Heights Water Treatment Works will experience some disruptions or low water pressure during this time:<\/p>\n
