Residents of Elsburg Extension One experienced low water pressure for over a month in their area and received no explanation from the metro as to what the issue was and what had caused it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe contacted the metro\u2019s service centre and were told that they were aware of the problem and were working on it.<\/p>
“However, the problem itself was not revealed,\u201d said Cheryl Smith, a concerned resident of Elsburg.<\/p>\n
The GCN contacted the metro for comment, and according to Themba Gadebe, spokesperson for the metro, the water supply interruption was due to a burst pipe near the stream between the Ekurhuleni Waste Department and the Delville industrial area.<\/p>
\u201cThe pipe was repaired on Wednesday (February 28),\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
