THE City of Tshwane has now promised to roll out the second phase of providing clean drinking water to Hammanskraal residents by the end of June, following the missed April deadline.

Tshwane promises clean water for Hammanskraal

Mayor Nasiphi Moya apologised to residents for the delay, attributing it to bad weather that impacted the construction of a modular water plant to supply Hammanskraal in four phases.

A water crisis in Hammanskraal made national headlines two years ago after contaminated water was supplied to residents, resulting in more than 20 deaths.

Moya apologised to residents for the delay in delivering clean water, initially promised for April, during her Friday visit to the Klipdrift plant and the Rooiwal wastewater treatment plant refurbishment project alongside Water and Sanitation Minister Pemmy Majodina.

The Rooiwal plant has been identified as the source of dirty water to the township owing to its lack of capacity to purify water.

Moya said that unforeseen weather conditions forced authorities to revise the timeline for water provision via the Klipdrift plant.
