- Collect fresh spring water at Newlands Springs. Located on Newlands Main road, next to Newlands Baths and Opposite the SAB Brewery. There are twelve taps of spring water. You are allowed to collect 25 litres per queue. The location offers free parking on the premises and off the main road. Gates are open between 6am and 11pm. If you are collecting water after dark, bring a torch as the lights aren’t always on. There is security on-site
I called Claremont Police station, I spoke to a lady who confirmed the Springs is open but you need a valid excuse to be out.
According to another officer also at Claremont Police station, if you have running water at home, you cannot collect water during the lock down. If its absolutely essential for you to collect water, then you need to be escorted by a police van and they will confirm your reason. Contact them on 0216572250
