Residents of Johannesburg will have to start living with daily water cuts, as a regime of 'water throttling' kicked off on Thursday. Water pressure will be low during the restriction times from 9 pm to 4 am, and it appears this will go on indefinitely. Announcing the measures on Monday, Water and Sanitation Minister Pemmy Majodina said the City intends to implement this continuously from the 14th of November 'until the system is fully recovered'. The move is aimed at allowing Joburg’s reservoirs to fill up and stabilise. "According to the statistics released by Majodina, an average Johannesburg resident is using 60% above the daily average in the world, which then points the misuse of water in the direction of the residents, and this was not welcomed."
