LEVEL 1 WATER RESTRICTIONS REMAIN
Level 1 water restrictions remain in place in Robertson, Ashton, Montagu, Bonnievale & McGregor.
Supply is stable but demand is at/near peak in most towns. Restrictions cannot be lifted until dam levels improve & key upgrades (pump stations, treatment works, pipelines) are completed.
Current status:
- Robertson: Demand higher than supply. Dam levels still not sufficient.
- Ashton: Full capacity, pump upgrade nearly done
- Montagu: Supply deficit, alternatives under review
- Bonnievale: Treatment works upgrade in design
- McGregor: Dam levels still below threshold
Residents are urged to:
- Use water sparingly
- Avoid outdoor use
- Fix leaks quickly
- Limit non-essential consumption
The Municipality is investing in upgrades & alternative sources. Restrictions will be reviewed once capacity improves.
Thank you for your cooperation. Responsible use protects households, schools, health services & the local economy.

Huidige status:

- Ashton: Vol kapasiteit, pomp-opgradering amper klaar
- Montagu: Voorsienings tekort, alternatiewe bronne ondersoek
- Bonnievale: Suiweringswerke-opgradering nog in ontwerp
- McGregor: Damvlakke steeds laag.
Inwoners word versoek om:
- Water spaarsamig te gebruik
- Buitegebruik te vermy
- Lekkasies vinnig te herstel
- Nie-noodsaaklike verbruik te beperk
Die Munisipaliteit belê in opgraderings & alternatiewe bronne. Beperkings sal hersien word sodra kapasiteit verbeter.

Unikezelo lwamanzi luzinzile kodwa imfuno ikufuphi okanye ifikelele kwelona nqanaba liphezulu kwiidolophu ezininzi. Imiqathango ayinakususwa de amanqanaba eedama aphucuke kwaye kugqitywe uphuculo olubalulekileyo (izikhululo xokumpompa, izikhululo zokucoca amanzi, imibhobho).
Imeko yangoku:
