Mayco member Xanthea Limberg has said the Cape Town CBD would be excluded from the ‘Day Zero’ water shutdown to ensure the economy keeps going, during an update on the ongoing water crisis in the Western Cape.

#CapeWater Key points:

– City's new collective water consumption target 450 mil l per day – currently sits at 620 mil l.
– Residents will still pay at collection point for water when Day Zero arrives.
– CBD and informal residents to be excluded from Day zero cut offs.
