The City’s Water and Sanitation Directorate welcomed over 23 highly specialised trucks to its fleet. This is in efforts to better aid water and sanitation service delivery in communities across Cape Town.
According to the City’s MAYCO member for Water
and Sanitation, Zahid Badroodien, department spent just over R53 million in the
2022/2023 financial year to get jet machine trucks, vacuum tanker trucks and
jet vacuum combination trucks.
“These new additions to the fleet will
contribute significantly in ensuring the City’s commitment to providing speedy
and efficient service in addressing service requests such as sewer blockages,
overflows and spills.”
Zahid Badroodien added that while the City is
investing in water and sanitation infrastructure, residents should also
remember to reduce sewer overflows. This can be done by not using toilets,
kitchen sinks and sewer drains like dirt bins.
