Rand Water is preparing to implement a 56-hour project next week to divert its G20 pipeline to enable City Power to expand the Mondeor substation in Johannesburg.

The diversion project will start at 06h00 on October 10 and is expected to be completed by 14h00 on October 12.

This is expected to result in water disruptions for areas supplied by the pipeline, with Johannesburg Water set to communicate specific areas impacted and the extent of water supply disruptions.

The G20 pipeline supplies water from the Zwartkopies Pumping Station, through Johannesburg South to some parts of Soweto.

“The implementation of the project is in line with the agreement that was signed between the two entities, Rand Water and City Power. City Power has requested Rand Water to relocate the G20 pipeline which runs near its Mondeor Substation,” Rand Water said in a statement issued on Friday.

Rand Water has formally informed the affected customers by issuing a 21-day notice to allow them to implement appropriate contingency measures.
