The Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport, together with Mogale City Local Municipality, brought hands-on service delivery to Munsieville residents on December 1, ensuring urgent improvements were made directly in the community.

Led by MEC Kedibone Diale-Tlabela and Mogale City Executive Mayor Lucky Sele, the operation brought together several municipal and provincial departments in a co-ordinated, all-hands-on-deck effort to fast-track critical community services.

From as early as 08:00, teams were deployed across Munsieville and surrounding areas to carry out rapid service improvements, including:

• Road repairs, refurbishment and new line markings
• Streetlight maintenance and restorations
• Sewer unblocking and burst pipe repairs
• Clearing of illegal dumping hotspots
• Indigent support and on-site registrations
• Title deed handovers to beneficiaries
• Walk-in assistance for municipal accounts, including the Black Friday 100% interest write-off initiative

The intervention also gave residents direct access to senior leadership and service teams, allowing long-standing issues to be addressed on the spot.

“We are creating awareness as we clean our community. People are dumping garbage on the roadside. We want to talk to communities to refrain from illegal dumping and wait for municipal collection. Illegal dumping not only causes diseases but many other societal ills,” said Diale-Tlabela.

“This is government showing up not in a boardroom, but on the streets where services matter most,” added Sele, emphasising the administration’s commitment to accelerating delivery and rebuilding trust.

He concluded that the activation forms part of a broader programme aimed at boosting efficiency, strengthening accountability and reinforcing the commitment to putting people first.
