The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Ngwathe has written to the municipal manager, requesting that the relevant teams be instructed to urgently attend to the non-functional high-mast lights in Koppies.
For a prolonged period, residents have raised concerns about poor visibility and the deteriorating conditions resulting from the continued lack of lighting in several areas.
High-mast lighting plays a crucial role in ensuring basic functionality and livability in the community. The current state of disrepair reflects ongoing service delivery challenges that require immediate intervention.
An update has been requested on the planned actions, expected timelines, and any constraints that may impact the completion of this work.
The DA will continue to monitor the situation closely and will hold the municipality accountable to ensure residents receive the reliable services they deserve.
