The City of Cape Town (COCT) has urged residents to remain patient as the necessary routine maintenance on electrical infrastructure continues from Monday 24 January until Sunday the 30th.
According to a statement by the COCT, regular planned maintenance takes place daily in various areas across the metro.
“The City informs residents that maintenance will take place to allow them time to plan for the outage and to allow our teams sufficient time to complete the required maintenance tasks. Routine maintenance is also preceded by a door-to-door pamphlet drop,” the COCT said.

- Planned maintenance takes place during Eskom’s loadshedding.
