@newsnexussa: The seaside town of Knysna on the Garden Route is inching closer to Day Zero. The town's main water supply, Akkerkloof dam, has less than 2 weeks of usable water remaining. Knysna Municipality has ramped up to Level 4 water restrictions, banning activities like garden watering, car washing, and pool filling. Teams are exploring alternatives, such as activating boreholes, desalination options, or drawing from nearby rivers, though these come with costs and environmental concerns. The Department of Water and Sanitation is closely monitoring the situation, holding joint operations with local and provincial leaders. Mayor Thando Matika has called for collective action, urging everyone to cut usage by at least 20%. Emergency meetings have discussed contingency plans, including potential water rationing or sourcing from tankers. 14 Jan 2026 #incaseyoumissedit #newsnexussa #newsstories #southafricatiktok🇿🇦
