THE City of Harare will tomorrow shut down the heart of its water network with Morton Jaffray and Warren Control Waterworks set for routine maintenance works.
This means that serious water shortages will affect most of the city’s suburbs but it’s expected to start easing on Friday.
The maintenance is part of the programme to solve the city’s perennial water problems.
“Please be advised that there will be a shutdown of both Morton Jaffray and Warren Control Waterworks from 1200hrs on Thursday 7 November 2024 to 1800hrs on Friday 08 November 2024,” Acting Town Clerk Engineer Phakamile Mabhena Moyo said.
“This will allow for scouring and subsequent repairs of the main line at various chambers from Morton Jaffray as well as the Warren to Alex interconnector.
“During this time all suburbs will be affected except for parts of the Western high density suburbs (Glen View, Budiriro, parts of Kuwadzana, Mufakose etc).
“We therefore encourage consumers to use water sparingly during this time and would like to offer our sincere apologies for any inconveniences that may arise.”
