Residents in Bronkhorstspruit are up in arms after receiving a notice from the city to not use the water from the Bronkhorstspruit waste water treatment plant for drinking or cooking purposes until further notice, following high levels of turbidity being recorded.

Some residents claim they have been without clean water for months and when the water is switched off and on again, they were left with extremely dirty water and sewage spillages.
