KIBLER PARK – A storm water tunnel situated on the corner of Annes View Road and Peggy Vera Road in Kibler Park is under the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.
The CHRONICLE reporter Zesuliwe Hadebe was informed of the danger of the tunnel by watchful residents in March, when two attempted housebreaking suspects were caught in the act on Sunningdale Road.
