The City of Bulawayo would like to advise members of the public of the extended water supply interruptions and suspension of the 120 hour shedding to all City areas except Industry and Central Business District (CBD) which was initially scheduled to finish Friday, 16 February 2024.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the repairs and maintenance works at Ncema have taken longer than planned. The City will continue to experience reduced raw water pumping to the City, which in-turn will cause a reduction in treated water production during the scheduled time.
To protect the reservoirs from collapsing due to reduction in raw water deliveries and treatment, the City of Bulawayo will irregularly open water supplies to alleviate communities from stretching too long without water. Supplies are expected to be restored after the reservoirs are fed and stabilise.
The City of Bulawayo wishes to apologise to its valued consumers for the inconvenience likely to be caused.
Date: Friday, 19 February 2024.
C. DUBE TOWN CLERK
