Aging & deteriorating infrastructure one of the major challenges facing Joburg, says Lesufi

Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has identified aging and deteriorating infrastructure as one of the major challenges facing Johannesburg.

He said that the provincial government would intervene to assist the municipality to replace and upgrade necessary infrastructure for service delivery.

Speaking to journalists in Soweto on Friday, Lesufi assured Johannesburg residents that additional resources would be allocated towards infrastructure refurbishments.

“We are the only generation where people planted things 30 years ago, those things are getting old. We have to change them. Similarly, in the CBD, the infrastructure there is old. We just have to overhaul it. Do we have the capacity, the skill, the talent, and the resources? It will take time. So it’s children foot steps for now,” said Lesufi.
