With the distress of having no water due to recent outages still fresh in their minds, Johannesburg residents face a 14-hour outage on Tuesday, but this time it's for planned maintenance.
The water supply will be interrupted to allow the tie-in of a new 160mm pipe to the existing 200mm and 250mm mainline.
Johannesburg Water said the outage was likely to affect Alexandra, Glenhazel, Kew, Bramley and Wynberg, from 07:00 to 21:00.
