Bulawayo Extends Water Cuts By Another 24 Hours

The Bulawayo City Council last week announced that it would be conducting major rehabilitation works at its water treatment plants resulting in 96-hour water for residents starting last Tuesday.

In a notice to residents, Town Clerk, Mr Christopher Dube revealed that due to unforeseen circumstances, the water cuts will be extended by another 24 hours. Said, Dube:

The City of Bulawayo would like to advise members of the public that the on-going major rehabilitation works at Criterion Water Treatment Plant funded under the Bulawayo Water and Sewerage Services Improvement Project (BWSSIP) being supported by the African Development Bank are still on-going.

The works which involve the replacement of valves, pumps and all associated civil works could not be completed as per the advertised 96-hour shutdown.

The contractor experienced some set-backs due to some unforeseen challenges on site. This will result in water supplies interruption previously scheduled to end on Saturday 6 July 2019 at 07:30 hours being extended to Sunday, 7 July at 18:00 hours.
