The eThekwini Municipality in KwaZulu-Natal says it is confident that its repairs to a major water pipeline will be completed by the end of this week.
Mayor Cyril Xaba inspected the damaged pipeline following a burst last week. The pipe supplies about 30 megalitres of water a day to the city.
Areas currently experiencing water shortages include parts of the outer west, such as Inchanga and Shongweni, as well as areas of Pinetown and Umhlanga.
