The City\u2019s Water and Sanitation Directorate will be conducting zero pressure tests on the main water supply to the De Bron area bounded by Tygerberg Valley Road, Jip De Jager Drive, Kenridge Road, Door De Kraal Road and Welgemoed Road. This work will result in the disruption of the water supply to this area on Tuesday, 26 April 2022, from 20:00 until 04:00 on Wednesday, 27 April 2022.<\/p>\n
Zero-pressure testing is part of the installation process for pressure management technology. Tests are done to see if there are any unmapped inflows that need to be taken into account before smart pressure reducing valves (PRVs) are installed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Residents are advised to store water upfront in clean, sealed containers for use during this period and to ensure that their taps are closed to avoid water loss and\/or damage when the supply is restored.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This work forms part of the City\u2019s Water Demand Management Strategy. Managing water pressure more effectively reduces the possibility of pipe bursts and water wastage.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The City regrets any inconvenience caused.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
