Region A

One of the seven operational regions, A to G, of Johannesburg Water (JW). JW prints the region on each of its Daily Water Notices.

Other regions: B · C · D · E · F · G

Suburbs

The 35 suburbs JW's notices name in Region A. A suburb JW has not yet named on a Region A notice is not listed, so this list is not complete. A suburb JW's notices place in more than one region is listed on each of those region pages.

Supplies

The reservoirs, towers and pump stations JW links to these suburbs, with the last status JW reported for each. Most suburbs draw on more than one.

What JW's boards cannot tell you

Whether water reaches your street or your tap.
Which streets lose water first: JW warns of higher-lying areas but does not name the streets.
Why a supply ran low, unless a JW notice gives a reason.
Pipe bursts, tankers and valve work, which are not on the boards.
