Midvaal takes service delivery to Riversdale

RIVERSDALE. - Midvaal Local Municipality Mayor Peter Teixeira rolled up his sleeves to help paint roads and remove grass and weeds from kerbs during the weekly Mayoral Service Delivery Thursday campaign which was again held Thursday 17 March 2022.

This week councillors, officials and workers from the municipality visited Riversdale in Ward 13 of the municipality to ensure service delivery in the area.

Now in its fifth week the Mayoral Service Delivery program aims to concentrate workers in one area so that service delivery can be noted and felt by the people on the ground.

This week the focus was on Riversdale. Speaking to Ster North during the service delivery visit, Teixeira described Riversdale as a diverse ward which include rural and semi-rural areas.
