Tshwane working to improve water, sanitation in several areas
The City of Tshwane says it has begun beefing up the management and technical support in several areas with the aim of improving water and sanitation.
MMC for Corporate and Shared Services Kingsley Wakelin says they are now deploying a number of new personnel to support work in Region 3.
Regions 3 stretches from the west of Atteridgeville towards the inner city and then further east, covering areas like Sunnyside, Arcadia, Hatfield, Groenkloof, Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Menlo Park.
Wakelin says Region 3 includes some of the oldest parts of the city where infrastructure is at its most fragile, particularly with regard to water and sanitation.
He says this is the reason why they are taking a targeted approach.
"Many councillors have been at the receiving end of extreme frustrations by residents and businesses who have grappled with underperformance in terms of repairing water leaks, restoring power, collecting waste, fixing potholes and cutting grass.”
