MEYERTON. – Midvaal Local Municipality (MLM) Mayor, Peter Teixeira together with MMC for Community Services Thembi Modiba today welcomed a new fleet of ten tractors and four advanced slashers.
In a statement, MLM said the fleet was procured through the capital budget at a cost of R3.7 million.

MLM states that the introduction of this new fleet will play a pivotal role in addressing any backlog in grass-cutting across Midvaal.
“This procurement is also aimed at enhancing our capabilities by adding to our grass-cutting cycle, a crucial aspect of municipal maintenance. As a municipality, we remain unwavering in our commitment to delivering service excellence.
‘This investment reaffirms our dedication to maintaining the pristine appearance of our community, ensuring a well-kept and pleasing environment for all residents.”
