It is believed that the community is angry over service delivery issues.


A group of residents took to the streets on Tuesday morning, barricading roads with burning tires.


Affected roads include Far East Bank Drive in Tsutsumani, Alexandra, between Laduma Street and Marlboro Drive.


“Motorists are urged to excise caution and to use alternative routes,” Fihla urged.
