Viljoen Street in Krugersdorp North has largely reopened to traffic following the completion of most of the resurfacing work, with only a short section at the corner of 4th Street still requiring final touches.

According to ward councillor Aletta van Loggerenberg, the contractor used a slurry mix resurfacing product that does not require rolling or compaction. The method also reduced the strong odour typically associated with resurfacing projects and left less loose stone on the road.

While most of Viljoen Street is now open to motorists, the contractor is expected to remove the remaining loose stones along the roadside.

Van Loggerenberg thanked residents and local businesses for their patience during the project and acknowledged the inconvenience caused by the temporary road closures.

Road markings are expected to be completed over the coming weeks, marking the final phase of the resurfacing project.

In the meantime, motorists and pedestrians are urged to remain cautious and be mindful of construction workers and loose gravel until all work has been completed.
