The City of Bulawayo would like to advise members of the public of water supply interruptions to all areas in the City including outside areas except Industry and Central Business District. This is due to scheduled electrical maintenance works at Ncema and Fernhill, which will affect pumping of water to the City. This subsequently, means during this period there is no treatment at both Ncema and Criterion Water Treatment Works leading to no inflows into the City Distribution Reservoirs.
To protect the supply and distribution reservoirs from collapsing, the City of Bulawayo will temporarily suspend the current water shedding programme and cut off supply to all residential areas with effect from Monday 18 March 2024 to Tuesday 19 March 2024. Supplies are scheduled to resume on Wednesday, 20th March 2024 after pumping and stabilisation of reservoirs.
The City of Bulawayo wishes to apologise to its valued consumers for the inconvenience caused by the erratic water supplies.
Water is life. Save every drop!!
