A main water line break on Front Street has resulted in a road closure and a water outage for 20 businesses and an elementary school in Lahaina. The outage began at approximately 12:30 p.m. and will continue until about 5:30 this evening, according to the county Department of Water Supply.
Residents, staff and students from Rhodes University and the College of the Transfiguration, businesspeople, members of the Unemployed People’s Movement and community leaders joined in protest on Monday against renewed prolonged water outages amid Makhanda’s decade-long water crisis.
