Iconsi ngalinye lamanzi ahlanzekile liyigugu. Ngeshwa, silahlekelwa amanzi amaningi ngenxa yokuvuza. Ukugcina amanzi azinzile sekuphenduke inselele njengoba kulahleka amanzi amaningi ohlelweni lokusabalalisa amapayipi.

Inhloso yale phrojekthi ukuhlinzeka ngamanzi anele futhi asesimeni esigculisayo, angaphazamiseki esidingweni esikhona nesesikhathini esizayo endaweni. Lokhu kuzokwenziwa ngamaphrojekthi wokongiwa kwamanzi kanye nokulawulwa kwesidingo. Ngokwencazelo yeMeya, lo msebenzi ngokwawo ubandakanya ukuqaliswa kokushintshwa kwamapayipi e-AC amapayipi amakhulu amathathu (3). Ipayipi lokuqala yipayipi elingu-250mm ububanzi elingu-1.17km futhi lihambisana nomgwaqo waseMathuneni eSteadville.
