Water Utilities Corporation Tlokweng

Water Utilities Corporation Tlokweng is an office of the Water Utilities Corporation (WUC), Botswana's state-owned water utility, in Tlokweng, South-East District, Botswana. WUC supplies water and handles wastewater services in Tlokweng, as it does across the country. In August 2024 the government's Daily News reported WUC's chief executive, Gaselemogwe Senai, as saying that the first phase of the corporation's prepaid smart-meter programme in greater Gaborone would include 13,000 meters for Ramotswa, Otse and Tlokweng. The stated aim was to "improve efficiency, water security and do away with challenges of unpaid, unaccounted for and high water bills". WUC was established in 1970 by an Act of Parliament (Cap 74:02) and is owned by the Government of Botswana. It began with a single task, supplying water to the Shashe Development Area, and later took on the main towns. Under water sector reforms that took effect in May 2009, it took over all water and wastewater service delivery in the country from the Department of Water Affairs and the district councils, while the department kept responsibility for water resources planning and dam construction. The corporation's head office is Sedibeng House on Luthuli Road, Gaborone. Tlokweng lies immediately east of Gaborone, across the Notwane River, and forms part of the greater Gaborone area. It is the home of the Batlokwa, and the border post with South Africa is about 15 km to the east. The 2011 census counted 35,982 residents. Opening hours for the Tlokweng office have not been published online, so phoning ahead before travelling is advisable.
