Description
Stay informed about water services across Rustenburg—right when it matters.
Rustenburg Water Alerts delivers reliable, ward-based notifications from the municipality’s water operations team. See what’s happening today, this week, and near you: planned maintenance, emergency bursts, tanker dispatch times, and when supply is restored.
What you can do
• Receive ward-specific alerts — outages, restorations, maintenance, emergency advisories, and general announcements.
• Follow “Today” and “This Week” feeds — a simple, chronological view of everything affecting your area.
• Check “Near Me” — view nearby incidents and updates on a map.
• Read official news — quick statements and longer updates from Rustenburg Water.
• Use Live Chat — report leaks/bursts with a photo and location, or ask for help directly.
• Save your location — add your address or use your current location; the app auto-assigns your ward and keeps your alerts relevant.
• Clear labels & colours — Emergency, Maintenance/Planned, Restored/Closed, Announcements, and Tanker updates are easy to spot.
Designed for residents
• Built for speed and clarity, especially during outages.
• Push notifications keep you informed without opening the app.
• Restoration notices help you know when supply is back.
• Tanker dispatch times and locations reduce uncertainty during extended work.
Where updates come from
