Prince Umhlangane Road Reopened
A critical infrastructure protection project was completed with the installation of gabions along the sewer line on Prince Umhlangane Road to stabilise the area, mitigate future landslide risks, and protect the roadway and underlying sewer infrastructure. The road has now been fully reopened to traffic.
Strong Metro and SAPS Presence
The Metro Police and SAPS assisted with obstructions on various roads and ensured a strong law enforcement presence in the precinct this month.
The RHVEMA continues to engage closely with eThekwini Municipality to ensure new faults are logged promptly and outstanding issues are actively followed up on. Members of the public are encouraged to report any maintenance or safety issues using the online report-a-fault platform.
