Protest causes disruption in refuse collection service
There is a disruption in the refuse collection service in some parts of the southern areas.
Motorists were stuck in traffic on the N2 south on Monday morning, 23 July after the Delangokubona Business Forum strew rubbish on the highway. According to the forum, DSW has not paid its subcontractors for three months, which caused the protest.
