The NEWS previously published stories about complaints from the community, ward councillors and the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality (EMM) that different developers did not upgrade the storm water system as and when they were constructing their developments.
Clr Clarke said the project started about three years ago.
She added that the bridge on Nettleton Road will also be rehabilitated.
Clr Clarke said she had confidence in the upgrades.
The banks along the river will also be strengthened.
