The metro is continuing to supply water in the form of mobile water tankers and Jojo tanks to areas of Germiston and Bedfordview that have been affected by water shortages.

Water tankers are being provided at the following locations:
- Corner Hazel Street and Pine Avenue, Marlands;
- Corner Oak Avenue and Chestnut Road, Primrose;
- Opposite Old Marlands Swimming Pool, near Solly’s Supermarket, corner Third and Fourth avenues, Marlands;
- Corner Serenade Road and Simon Street, Rustivia;

Although the supply to Bedfordview has been stable over the past days, some areas may experience low water pressure.
Water will still be supplied in Jojo tanks at the following points:
- Corner Riley Road and Van Buuren Road, Bedfordview;
- Van Buuren Road (east of Harper Road), in front of Virgin Active;
- Parking area at KFC, Kirkby Road, Bedford Gardens;
- Corner Lucas Lane and Norman Road, Bedfordview (in front of Hyundai);

This will be informed by the constant monitoring which is currently taking place.
