UPDATE 44: Portion of Whites Road and Kleinkrantz Water Outage

Issued by George Municipality – 1 December 2025 @21:15

The flow to Ebb & Flow Reservoir remains stable. The Kleinkrantz water network and reservoir are filling, and the system is expected to normalise over the next few hours. The Whites Road supply issue has been resolved.

TECHNICAL UPDATE

WILDERNESS EAST
The water is on again in Wilderness East. As the pipes fill, pressure will continue to normalise.

(Note: Tankers will be withdrawn once network pressure normalises.)

Residents whose water supply has been restored may still experience low pressure while the system stabilises.
