The Water and Sanitation Department says the 12-month curtailment, introduced in October, will be suspended until mid-January.


The department says this will allow uMngeni-UThukela Water to meet the demand over the festive season.


Anthony Waldhausen who’s with the uMsunduzi Ratepayers Association says the decision is a relief for residents.

"The important part also is the community as well plays a huge part in this, so we can actually help."
