EDITOR – I am a resident in Beverley Avenue, Highway Gardens.
I reported a leaking pipe on the corner of Beverley Avenue and Cowie Avenue to the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality (EMM) at the end of April this year.
So called “repairs” have been done to the leaking pipe four times, after numerous fruitless complaints and getting references.
Every time a team arrived, they would clear the fault on the system when it had not been repaired.
The one square meter hole, with danger tape and water trickling from it, has become a “feature” on the corner and now people are using it as a bin.
It is now four months later, I am at my wits’ end and looking for assistance.
