The eThekwini Metro opted for boreholes in parts of the city that were facing water challenges.
This as it faces a water crisis that has seen areas in the north of Durban without water two weeks ago.
But eThekwini Mayor Mxolisi Kaunda said teams were now deployed to solve the crisis.
“Work is continuing to resolve water challenges, particularly in the rural parts of our municipality.”

At the same time, the Democratic Alliance (DA) reported the city to the Human Rights Commission (HRC) for failing citizens in this regard.
