uMkhomazi Water Project Phase 1 progresses

The construction of the R27.5-million uMkhomazi Water Project Phase 1 (uMWP-1), a major bulk water infrastructure scheme in KwaZulu-Natal, is set to start in January 2028, a year after the planned issue of the construction tender in January 2027. The expectation is that the project will start delivering water in July 2032, said Trans-Caledon Tunnel Authority (TCTA) project finance specialist Thabani Nomvalo during Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) sector-specific consultations on the proposed 2027/28 raw water tariffs on Thursday.
