Eyewitness news warned that the disruptions if usage is above the required levels during peak water usage times, which are in the mornings between 5am-9am and evenings between 5 pm- 9storpm.

Services will be restored once the demand decreases within the limitations of the level 5 water restrictions .Most recent water interruptions took place in CBD, Maitland and Paarden Eisland from 10pm last Friday (November 10) to 10am the following day.
