Ward 54
One of Johannesburg's 135 wards, as the Municipal Demarcation Board drew them for the local government election on 4 November 2026. Below are its suburbs and what Johannesburg Water (JW) reported for the reservoirs and towers that supply them.
Suburbs
13 suburbs in Ward 54. Those marked (part) lie only partly in the ward.
- Booysens Reserve
- Crown Gardens
- Evans Park
- Framton (part)
- Framton Industrial
- Mondeor (part)
- Nasrec (part)
- Ormonde
- Ormonde 99-Ir
- Ridgeway
- Suideroord
- Theta
- Winchester Hills (part)
We have not found which reservoir or tower supplies Framton Industrial and Ormonde 99-Ir. They are names on the City of Johannesburg's suburb map that we do not track, so they have no page here.
How we place a suburb in a ward: we lay the Municipal Demarcation Board's ward boundaries over the City of Johannesburg's suburb map. A suburb is listed when at least a quarter of it lies in the ward, or when it makes up at least a tenth of the ward. A suburb split by a ward line may be supplied differently in the part outside the ward.
Supplies
The 5 supplies JW links to these suburbs, with the last status JW reported for each. A supply is a reservoir, tower or pump station that JW reports on. 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.
