Water supply in Johannesburg will be throttled from 18:00 on 11 March 2026 until 05:00 on 12 March 2026. Restrictions will vary, with reductions between 50% and 100%. The Deep South System in Johannesburg is experiencing critically low water levels with several reservoirs like Orange Farm and Lenasia critically low and outlet closed overnight, leading to poor pressure in these areas. Affected reservoirs and towers include Orange Farm, Lawley, Lenasia, Diepsloot, Berea, Brixton, Doornkop, and Grand Central (Glen Austin line). Daily throttling also affects Helderkruin, Witpoortjie, Bryanston, Morningside, Linbro Park, Marlboro, Yeoville, Aero, Rabie Ridge, Protea Glen, and Illovo stations. Specific valves being operated: White Ridge North Meter, Fleurhof (At Help Mekaar Street), Gustav Road (RW Direct Feed), Nick Toommy (RW Direct Feed), Van Lil (RW Direct Feed).
