Due to a pipe failure before the last breakwater tank, there is a water interruption affecting the bottom section of Herold Bay. Our team is currently attending to address the issue. The estimated time for repair has been extended to two hours from now, due to complications. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.
Moderate rainfall in the catchment area has led to increased water levels in the Touw River. The river mouth has been breached by SANParks to manage water flow and prevent flooding.
