Mayor announces project to build new toilets in Bethany area
The toilets are equipped with advanced technology that accelerates waste decomposition.
uThukela District Municipality Mayor Inkosi NB Shabalala held a sod-turning ceremony today (October 8) to mark the beginning of a sanitation infrastructure project in Ward 15 of Okhahlamba Local Municipality.
The community gathered at the Bethany Community Hall, where the mayor addressed them about the construction of 50 toilets in the area.
Shabalala highlighted the fact that the new latrines are equipped with advanced technology, including chemical treatments that accelerate waste decomposition. This eliminates the need to dig new pits once the toilets are full – an important upgrade from traditional systems.
This project is aimed at improving the quality of life for local residents. Locals will also benefit via temporary employment opportunities.
