Tomorrow, 15 August 2019, the MMC for Environment and Infrastructure Services, Cllr Nico de Jager and the management of Johannesburg Water will provide a detailed briefing of the progress and plans to replace water and sewer pipes across the City of Johannesburg.
These water and sewer network infrastructure pipes have a remaining useful life of fewer than two years and will be replaced at a cost of R2,8 billion.
The rolling out of the pipe replacement programme will ensure that the number of bursts per kilometre and the number of blockages per kilometre are reduced, resulting in improved levels of service to consumers in the City.
The details of the press briefing are as follows:
Date: 15 August 2019
Time: 10:00 – 11:00
Venue: Corner Portland Avenue and Magalies Street, Hursthill
RSVP: Eleanor.mavimbela@jwater.co.za
There will be hydraulic testing of the pipe along Portland Avenue and opportunities for interviews and photographs.
