Hajee Jamal Street begins a long-awaited upgrade as the R134-million rehabilitation project is launched.
One of Peacevale’s most notorious suburban routes, Hajee Jamal Street, is finally set for a long-awaited upgrade.
Major road overhaul launched
This follows the official launch on Thursday of a R134-million rehabilitation project, which will transform the pothole-riddled stretch of road that residents say has damaged countless vehicles.
The project, expected to take 10 months to complete, will see the full upgrade of a two-kilometre section of the road.
Turning the symbolic first sod, Mayor Mcebo Mkhize said the work will include the cleaning and repairing of 43 storm-water drains, resurfacing with a 40mm premix, landscaping, new road signage and markings.
The project will also create 11 temporary jobs.
“Okwabantu ebantwini – for the people, by the people. Together in prosperity,”
Mayor Mkhize said.
