The department of water and sanitation DWS, in partnership with Rand Water, has launched a Special Purpose Vehicle SPV aimed at fixing water and sanitation in the Emfuleni local municipality in the Vaal.
This is meant to address years of dry taps, leaking pipes and raw sewage flowing through the streets and peoples homes.
Rand Water managing director Maubane Mahlare, who is driving the process, told Sowetan the SPV will take full control from July 2026.
