An outstanding quotation from Johannesburg Water continues to delay the repairs of a four-month-old broken storm water drain on 2nd Avenue in Lyndhurst.
Johannesburg Roads Agency (JRA) head of regional operations Mpho Maruping, on May 6, confirmed that JRA is currently following up with Johannesburg Water to finalise the outstanding quotation.
“Approval of the quotation is required before the works can be formally scheduled. Once feedback and confirmation have been received, we will proceed with scheduling the repairs and communicate the planned commencement date accordingly.”

Ward 81 councillor Joanne Horwitz said JRA’s delays were unsatisfactory and that she would be escalating the matter.
