Drinking water in Mthatha
Mthatha draws its water from the Mthatha River system, with the Mthatha Dam and the Nelson Mandela Dam upstream, and the town has long struggled with ageing mains and treatment capacity. Outages and low pressure have affected parts of the CBD, Northcrest and the hills above Ngangelizwe, so tanks on roofs and stands are a familiar sight. Water can turn cloudy after heavy rain in the catchment. Dispensers are in demand at the university campus, government offices, hospitals, guesthouses on the road to Qunu, and in homes that no longer trust the taps.
