Ventersdorp
The JB Marks Local Municipality take this opportunity to notify residents of Greater Ventersdorp, particularly the Town and Tshing areas, of an emergency breakdown at the Water Treatment Plant.
The Municipality has decommissioned the new plant to undertake major mechanical and electrical repair works. As a result, water supply is currently being provided through the old plant, which is unable to meet full demand at this stage.
The required replacement parts have been ordered and are expected to arrive tomorrow morning, Tuesday, 14 October 2025. Repair work will resume immediately upon their arrival and is anticipated to be completed as soon as possible.
Residents are therefore, urged to use water sparingly during this period to help sustain the available supply until normal operations are restored. The JB Marks Local Municipality apologises to all residents who are affected and appeals for understanding and cooperation during this period.
