It's a disgrace that simple maintenance doesn't take place

Bob Oakes (Benono, 2021-02-03)

City of Ekurhuleni must be held accountable for lack of service. Street lights are very important for the safety of the community

The street lights have been out of order since we moved in and criminals are enjoying it.

The Kempton Park municipality is slacking on so many levels, & the street lights & pot holes URGENTLY need to be fixed & repaired because it’s a safety risk to all citizens.

Leone Bredenkamp (Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

#635

The lack of service is appalling. We are expected to pay our rates but when it comes to service, Covid has now become another excuse not to do the work or to say it's not a priority.
Where's the integrity and pride in the workplace gone to?

Charmaine Cloete (Esther Park, Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

Of our safety, the dark road is not safe

Milton Nortje (Primrose, 2021-02-03)

#637

Street lights on above road have not worked for months. Reported several times but not been attended to.
This is unacceptable as this becomes a security risk and is dangerous for residents coming home at night. I’m a woman driving on my own with kids in the car and was very scary arriving home at night. Council is really slack on their service delivery and are putting people’s lives at risk for hijackings and muggings and who knows what else? Do you care Ekurhuleni Municipality?!?!?!?

Elizabeth Pinhao (Kempton park, 2021-02-03)

No lights dangerous

Marius Naude (Primrose, 2021-02-03)

I'm signing because street lights are important to prevent crime in the community. Street lights are part of the CoE service delivery and community members need to feel safe.

Debbie Cronning (Germiston, 2021-02-03)

Street lights in Ash and Willow roads in Primrose, Germiston are out of order. We have been trying to log incidents on the app, with no success.

#681

I am so tired of paying and getting no return. Please we need you to start employment on the basis of abilities, or we need to chat about recompensation for the either vicarious liability or. delict as as result of the damage your ineffective employees are causing. It’s time for us to sue

Gail Gibson (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

My streetlight pole number 19 in Chapman Rd has been off since September 2020 even though I've reported it several times and nothing has been done about it.

Linda Schubert (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#686

Street lights never works in this area

Sonika Fourie (Ekurhuleni, 2021-02-04)

#688

Many vulnarable families are one parent and children or elderlies living by themselfs in our areas. It has been proven by the stredt lights causjng total darkness and together eith that the removal of our police station. All these situations are creating easy targeging for those who want to house-rob/ physical attacks/rape/etc.

Jeanette de Vries (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#695

Sick and tired of streetlights that are not working..dangerous

Elize Watson (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#696

And get a contractor to check they operation st night when the lights are on anyway. It is wasteful to leave them on all day. Also repair day/night timer switches that Jacques Meiring said were responsible.

Claire Nelson-Esch (Benoni, 2021-02-04)

#699

I made an accident in November because street lights were out, it was raining and I couldn't see where I was driving.

I care about the comunity that I live in and as a rate paying member I feel strongly that the Metro needs to start stepping us and providing value.

anita jooste (ekurheleni, 2021-02-04)

#712

Street lights need to be repaired to ensure safety of residents. Grass on verges need to be cut so we can see oncoming traffic.

Kim Rogers (Ekhuruleni, 2021-02-04)

The lack of streetlights are compromising our safety

#732

The street lights in my area, as well as in the street in front of my house, regularly are OFF. I have raised multiple complaints with the Ekurhuleni call centre. This is a huge security risk and we beg Ekurhuleni for urgent attention to this problem.

Michela De Stefani (Boksburg, 2021-02-04)

#733

Lives of residents are at risk

Louis Roland Epoh (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#736

The service delivery is non-existent. What are the council doing with our rates & taxes / income tax. Enough is enough, stop paying rates.

Michael Crowley (Boksburg, 2021-02-04)

#738

I am fed up with the fact that the counsil is not helping us with the power surge problems and if you claim they don't want to compensate you at all for the appliance that you lost because of it.

Tina Pieters (Kempton park, 2021-02-04)

#741

Our entire street has been without lights since beginning of January and despite several complaints to the energy department on the app.

Amanda Sherrin (Kempton Park, 2021-02-04)

#742

The street lights in Hamelia Road has been out / off for more than a year now. This is dangerous for us as unwanted elements use the cover of darkness to break in.

Dawn Vos (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#745

I'm signing because it is so dangerous having no street lights giving the criminals care Blanche to commit crimes. Not acceptable. My rates pay for this.

Dot Swiegers (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#746

I haven’t had working streetlights outside my home for over 1 month. In a country with such high crime levels, light is a key factor for safety and something my taxes pay for.

KJ Urquhart (Ekhuruleni, 2021-02-04)

#748

We struggle at night to see what is going on in our street

Melinda De Koker (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#749

It is ridiculous that we pay our dues but do not get the service we are paying for. And in these days surrounded by Squatter camps with 100's of unemployed people it increases the risk for crime and not having street lights makes it so much easier for criminals to operate

Charmain Scheepers (Parkhill Gardens, 2021-02-04)

#750

Crime is getting out of hand at night and we can't see anything on the street

Gavin Lee Havenga (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#752

In Bergweg werk die straat ligte nou vir die laaste 3maande net aan die helfde van die straat. Sonder ligte is die straat gevaarlik

Riekie Pretorius (Alberton, 2021-02-04)

#753

Because the lights are there for a reason........ to light up at night.

Andre Janse van Rensburg (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#755

Because we have personally reported faulty street lights numerous times since June 2020 and not a single one had been fixed!

Willie Claassens (Kempton Park, 2021-02-04)

#756

Firstly we pay rates and taxes, why are we not getting any services, primrose is going down the toilet fast, it's heartbreaking to see.
Street lights are essential to our well-being, we need to see what's going on around us, criminals and Prostitute's are able to move around at night without being detected, this is a security issue for the community.
I for one am disgusted by the attitude of the people who are supposed to serve us, they serve only themselves !!!

Sharon Hardwich (Primrose, 2021-02-04)

Safety of tesidents is the responsibility of the Metro. Crime rising in dark areas where lights dont work.

Linda O’Connor (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#762

We shouldn't be complaining there should be daily inspections done by council... daily maintenance, not only lights, cutting grass on pavements, cutting trees regularly, tarring roads...etc that's what rates are for!

Isabel Martins (Germiston, 2021-02-04)

#764

I pay rates and taxes to have this service! I am not getting what I am paying for to keep my family and I safe and secure! Failing dismally to provide!

We live in the area of the Solheim koppie and it is extremely dark. We also need the trees cut that are Hani g on the electric cables as it is causing electrical problems in our homes.......

Tina Bath (Germiston, 2021-02-05)

#789

I am tired of logging it with Ekurhuleni call center with no changes. I have logged it with Ekurhuleni for 2 years now and no change.
