Water tankers will also be deployed where necessary to provide water for essential domestic use.
As a precaution, residents are also encouraged to store enough water in clean, sealed containers before the maintenance begins.
The City said the overnight work forms part of its ongoing programme to monitor the condition of critical water infrastructure, helping identify potential leaks and improve the long-term reliability of Cape Town’s water network.
