Cape Town has set aside R55 million to refurbish its water infrastructure, aiming to improve the efficiency of its services and speed up restorations. The city is using both internal and external resources to handle the increased workload and minimize disruptions to residents. The goal is to learn from the ongoing restoration process to make future reinstatements more streamlined, and the city is doubling annual water pipe replacements to 50km to ensure sustainable development and access to quality water and infrastructure for its residents.
