April 15, 2025

DURBAN Mayor Cyril Xaba has reiterated the city's commitment to addressing water challenges, adding that in two weeks’ time, they will table a detailed plan of action aimed at resolving this problem.

Xaba said the municipality has developed and tabled a water turnaround strategy, and in about two weeks, they will present an implementation plan. He explained that the city is grappling with water challenges due to a string of problems, including intense migration to the city and the deterioration of infrastructure.

He spoke to The Mercury on the sidelines of the launch of the Easter Holiday safety plan at Westown yesterday. The City took members of the media to the outer-west area to showcase tourist attractions for those visiting Durban this Easter. Among the tourism gems were places in the Valley of a Thousand Hills.
