According to Mogale City Local Municipality (MCLM) communications officer Refilwe Mahlangu, there are still some minor adjustments to be made on the road to ensure that it will be fully maintained, however, it won’t affect road users majorly.

The road closure formed part of the city’s Roads, Rehabilitation and Resurfacing Project done in partnership with the national government to improve the condition of the main access road into the CBD.

Mahlangu added that the municipality appreciates the patience of the residents as the maintenance work took place.
“The municipality would like to thank affected residents for their patience and co-operation. While it was disruptive, the project has helped improve the road conditions and access to businesses for residents and visitors.”
