Umngeni-Uthukela Water has enforced an emergency water supply
shutdown in KwaDukuza Local Municipality.

It says it's due to leaks found on a pipeline leading from the water works to the command reservoir.
Spokesperson Siyabonga Maphumulo says the leak has led to water levels dropping below normal operating standards.
