The City of Cape Town’s law enforcement agencies has removed over 120 tyres hidden across multiple locations of Grassy Park, Lotus River and Strandfontein.
Protest action occurred on Baden Powell Drive in the Khayelitsha area on Friday morning, where tyres were set alight.
‘’Besides an incredible amount of damage to the road surface that almost instantly results in potholes from developing, sadly it will be these most vulnerable communities that will suffer most from such cowardly acts of damage to infrastructure,’’ said JP Smith, mayco member for safety and security.
‘’With crime and loadshedding certainly reasons for the
nation to protest against, it makes absolutely no sense to protest against the
efforts of local government when the problems caused are those inflicted by
national government,’’ he added.
