Water supply cut off in Suikerbossie and Llandudno

The City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation department is currently in the process of shutting down the water supply, which services areas such as Suikerbossie and Llandudno, due to the rupture on the pipeline.

Spokesperson for the department, Farouk Robertson said they had tried to repair the pipe on Saturday but the weather made it impossible. They are expected to complete work on the pipe by 5pm.

“We do apologise for any inconvenience caused but we have to keep our infrastructure in good condition.”

In this case, the pipeline is below the ground and could complicate things. Robertson added that they will try to restore the water as soon as possible.

Whew! Had us worried there, for a moment...
