Johannesburg mayor Dada Morero has urged residents to limit harvesting water as parts of the city continue to battle with inconsistent supply and failing reservoirs.
Speaking during a media briefing on Monday, Morero said the city was working around the clock to address widespread pipe leaks, illegal water connections and low reservoir levels which have left several communities without water.
Were also saying to the communities, if you can, reduce harvesting of water because it also affects the reservoir, because once you harvest it still does not help us to respond to the water demand.
