Water supply issues in Tshwane East

JOHANNESBURG - Residents of the eastern parts of Tshwane residents may not have water on Saturday.

The city says Rand Water is experiencing supply challenges.

Supply was opened on Friday but there's only been a gradual flow into the Metro's reservoirs.

Affected residents were left without water following a drop, and in some instances, depletion of water levels.

Rand Water says repairs to the Zuikerbosch Plant caused delays before pumping got back to full capacity.

The water shortages come just after power was restored to areas affected by collapsed power pylons.
