A portion of Pacaltsdorp is experiencing a power outage.
The following streets are affected by this outage: Church Str, Beach rd, Clinic str and Mission Str.
Our electrician is on site assessing the damage to line.
The estimated time of repair will be communicated soon.

Repairs are in progress to the bulk water pipeline on the corner of Monte Vista Drive and Glenwood Avenue.
Please note this is the second fault that took place late last night following a pressure imbalance. The pipeline is not standard size and as such the fittings and couplings are not readily available.
Our appointed contractors are on site and the updated estimated time of repairs is 12h00
Three water tankers are stationed at the following positions:

Repairs are nearly completed on the bulk water pipeline. Due to the odd size of the installation, a number of the fittings and couplings were not readily available. After being unable to source from all service providers in George, the required spares were manufactured in Mossel Bay today.
The water should be reopened by 5pm today and it will then take at least an hour for the water network to stabilize and for pressure to build up. The water network should be fully restored by 6pm. The water trucks will remain stationed in the positions below until after 6pm.
