Dear Residents of Bedford Avenue Bellair

Water outage update:

10/06/2026, 07:33.

The EWS Department has unfortunately not settled the contractor's payments for the past two months, resulting in a work stoppage. A notable incident occurred at 73 Bedford Avenue, near the Student Residents, where a burst pipe leaked extensively for nearly 12 hours despite numerous reports.After 15+ calls , tons of messages the burst was only isolated at 16:00 yesterday.

Water tankers have been requested to mitigate the situation.

Today I will fight hard for a team to be dispatched to commence with the repairs. My heart goes out to the Elderly and disable who can't carry water from the Water Tanker, if you can help in anyway possible please do.

Please look out for the Tanker , I will revert back to you should there be any further updates.

Kind regards

Water gushing profusely since 6am this morning, resulting in significant water wastage and road infrastructure damage. The Water Department is currently unable to address the issue due to a lack of available plumbers and field staff. I have arranged for a tanker to provide assistance and will continue to monitor the situation until repairs are completed.

16:00 burst has just been isolated.....

Municipality you can do better

The burst is a massive one and is going to take time to repair, I have just followed at 18:00 and was advised that the team is still busy with the repairs and that there still is no estimated time frame for restoration.
