JOHANNESBURG - Residents in Bedfordview say they are in a dry spell, with no water for the past nine days.
The cause of the supply cut remains unclear as the city is seeking answers from its water supplier.
Water and Sanitation MMC Thembi Msane said the issues began last week Thursday when maintenance on Rand Water’s infrastructure was conducted.
Msane also mentioned that the lack of communication from their supplier has made it difficult for them to provide answers to community members.
“They failed to communicate with us and, hence, we are failing to communicate with our customers. So, the only thing we can keep on telling our customers is that we don't know what is happening, but we'll continuously provide you with tankers in order to make sure that at least you have water in your houses.”
EWN has reached out to Rand Water and has yet to receive a response.
