In a week marred by water issues, the Buffalo City Metro has warned residents that some areas may be without water as the Vincent Reservoir is at critically low levels. The affected areas were Nahoon Valley Park, Dorchester Heights, Bonnie Doon, Nahoon, Vincent and Bunkers Hill. The metro said municipal teams were on the scene and repairing the damaged pipeline, with repairs expected to be completed later in the day.
The teams were also investigating another suspected burst on the gravity main supplying the Woodbrook Reservoir, which might affect the supply of water.
