I have noticed that street lights are left on during the day, all day, all over Brackenhurst and Brackendowns.
The council cannot afford to waste electricity and I would like to know why this is happening.
I have emailed them numerous times, as well as the ward councillor, van Wyk, but am getting absolutely nowhere. Complaints on the e-Siyakhokha website also are also futile.
The council does not bother to reply and clearly does not care.

“We appreciate your alert to us. The City of Ekurhuleni will attend to the lights,” said Themba Gadebe, spokesperson from Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality.
