Polokwane Municipality wishes to inform residents of a major water supply disruption currently affecting several areas within the city.
This shortage arises from an unplanned interruption experienced by Lepelle Northern Water at the Olifantspoort Plant (PS1) since yesterday, as officially communicated.
Water supply from the Olifants line is anticipated to improve by Friday, 3 October 2025, following the completion of a scheduled 48-hour shutdown that is currently ongoing from 1 and 2 October 2025.
Areas affected include:
- City Centre
- Entire Seshego
- Fauna Park
- Flora Park
- Ivy Park
- Moletjie
- Moeregloed
- Nirvana
- Penina Park
- Serala View
- Sterpark
To mitigate the impact, the municipality has intensified the deployment of water tankers to the most affected areas.
The municipality appeals to all residents and stakeholders to use water sparingly during this period of constrained supply and apologizes for the inconvenience caused.
