Rand Water has refuted reports that its system has crashed and says it has been supplying Gauteng municipalities with sufficient water.

The Bulk supplier briefed the media on Friday in Glenvista, south of Johannesburg, about water concerns in the province.

“We are pumping at the max. there is no indication that we are moving to Day Zero. From no indication from our side, we are pumping at maximum capacity, 5 000ml of water per day to 17/18 million people. The reservoirs are picking up, the dams are full. The word day zero does not even exist in our vocab.

In neighbouring Crosby, there are similar frustrations. “It’s been here in Crosby with no water, next to coronation secondary high. We are not coping and the school started coming out at 11 o’clock.”
