The projects are funded by the Department of Co-operative Governance & Traditional Affairs (CoGTA).
Sibisi emphasised the critical role these infrastructure upgrades will play in improving residents’ daily lives by providing better access to essential services and boosting local economic activity. In closing, the mayor called on all community members to fully co-operate during the construction phase of these projects.
