Franshoek - The R1.5 billion Berg River Dam, opened on Thursday, is expected to augment Cape Town's water supply by almost 20 percent.
The Western Cape department of infrastructure has allocated R1,49 billion for the Cape Winelands District Municipality (CWDM) for the 2023-’24 financial year to spend on road infrastructure, human settlements and public works.
As the Western Cape heads closer to winter, the official dam level stats in the province have started to rise as Autumn rains falls.
Following recent rains in the Western Cape, there was a slight increase of less than 1% in average water levels. However, the Berg River Catchment area saw a notable increase.
On Friday 14 April the Western Cape Minister of Infrastructure, Tertuis Simmers, together with his executive management team visited the Cape Winelands District Municipality.
