The park would have included a picnic area, an amphitheater and a chessboard for players to enjoy.

However, it turned out to be a mere formality as they were originally contracted to work for six months.
The workers will now receive their contract on a week by week basis until the park is finished.
Dean Stone, ward councillor for the area says: “The community was very excited about this park.
“We have not had any security problems since construction began September last year.”
Themba Gadebe says: “We are still busy on site and we will be finalising the first phase before the end of this financial year.”
