Illegal dumping in Tenth Avenue has crept onto the road surface.

Illegal dumping in Tenth Avenue, Forderville is reaching alarming proportions.

Despite calls for residents to correctly dispose of their waste, some still choose to dump on the sidewalks, which is now infringing on the roadside.

Navigating past this ‘dumpsite’ is tricky if there are two vehicles approaching.

The road is potholed and strewn with rubbish, reducing it to a single lane.

Residents who live nearby indicated that the illegal dumping is caused by people who live in the street as well as others from neighbouring areas.

Remember you can report illegal dumping to Umtshezi Municipality on 036 342 7800.

If possible, snap a photo or take down the registration number of the vehicle if one is used.
