Update: Unplanned Pipe Repair Blanco
Issued by George Municipality, 01 Feb 2024 @17:15
George Municipality’s Water Department this afternoon attended to a pipe burst on a main supply pipeline in Robyn Crescent, Blanco.
On investigation, the Water Distribution Personnel found that the section where the repair work is required is underneath an informal structure that can be dismantled. The structure will be dismantled over the weekend to continue with work on Monday, 05 February 2024.
Meanwhile, the Municipality is supplying the reservoir with an alternative 450mm diameter feeder pipeline, so everyone will have a water supply.
