WATCH | Water woes continue in Joburg

JOHANNESBURG - Frustration is mounting for Johannesburg residents, who find themselves without water for the long weekend.

Joburg Water says it’s doing all it can to sort out water issues.

Many parts of Gauteng have been without water for weeks on end.

Part of the reason for the water stress is because of high consumption during Spring.

Experts say as much as 60% of the water that is pumped into Johannesburg Water is lost through poor and failing infrastructure.
