Bryanston West

Last Johannesburg Water (JW) report: Tue 29 Sep 2026, 21:05

Both of Bryanston West's supplies: short of water on 6 and 7 days this year.

From 190 and 189 days with a JW report. A typical reservoir or tower in the city had 4.

At JW's last report: Supplying fairly (1) Water as normal (1)

JW lists Bryanston West under both supplies and does not say which streets each one reaches.

Your street may differ: each report covers a reservoir or tower and the area it feeds, and higher streets lose water first. What JW's words mean

Day by day

In 2026 so far: 7 days short of water for Bryanston Tower, from 189 days with a report; 6 days for Kensington B Tower, from 190. A typical supply in the city, the median one (half had fewer), had 4 days.

Each square is a day, as JW reported it for a supply: a reservoir or tower that JW reports on. The number at the right is the month's days short of water.

In 2026 so far, JW reported at least one of Bryanston West's 2 supplies short of water on 13 days

3 March 2025 to 29 September 2026, from 494 days with a JW report.

Kensington B Tower

In 2026 so far: 6 days short of water, from 190 days with a JW report.

A day counts as short of water when JW's worst report for it that day was “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low”, as happening or expected (expected most often means higher streets). A warning that it may occur does not count.

In short

The latest JW report on this site is from 29 September 2026; the site last read JW's website on 1 October. Bryanston Tower and Kensington B Tower were supplying fairly or better. This year Bryanston Tower was short of water on 7 of the 189 days JW reported it. A typical reservoir or tower in the city had 4 such days. On Bryanston Tower, half of its last 8 outages lasted at least 25 hours; the longest since March 2025 lasted at least 40 hours. No JW notice we have read names Bryanston Tower.

Where Bryanston West gets its water

Bryanston West draws on two supplies at once: Bryanston Tower and Kensington B Tower. JW does not say which street each one reaches.

Outages

JW reported 12 outages on Bryanston West's supplies since March 2025. The longest lasted 46 hours. Every outage, with how long it lasted: Bryanston Tower and Kensington B Tower.

JW's end dates

No JW notice we have read stated an end time for these supplies. Each end date against what happened: Bryanston Tower and Kensington B Tower.

Under strain

In 2026 so far, Bryanston West had 21 days under strain: days when JW reported any of its supplies low or worse, or warned that higher-lying areas may lose water. This is a wider count than days short of water.

The network is linked. Bryanston West draws on all its supplies at once, and when one runs low the others carry more. At such times JW's boards sometimes warn of “poor pressure to no water in higher-lying areas”: under strain, higher streets lose water first. JW does not say which streets those are.

What JW's boards cannot tell you

JW's boards report reservoirs and towers, so some things are not in this record:
