Joburg Water Under Pressure | Johannesburg News

Joburg Water is on high alert as El Niño brings hotter, drier weather — potentially the strongest in memory — threatening South Africa’s already strained water supply. To cope, they’re throttling reservoirs and pump stations, especially in informal settlements, fixing leaks, and boosting pressure management across the network. With forecasts predicting below-normal rainfall through October to December, every drop counts. Residents are urged to fix household leaks, turn off taps when not in use, and water gardens only before 6am or after 6pm — because saving water now means keeping the taps running for everyone.
