Visit to Big Frank Pump Station in Odendaalsrus

Visit to Big Frank Pump Station in Odendaalsrus, Block A.

The Big Frank Pump Station in Odendaalsrus, Block A, was one of the stations that suffered vandalism, leading to significant sewer spillages in the area.

Thanks to the proactive efforts of the current leadership, financial support and intervention were secured from the Department of Water and Sanitation.

As a result, the Big Frank Pump Station is now undergoing refurbishment, with completion expected in the coming months, alongside other pump stations across Matjhabeng....

This intervention is a key component of the Municipality's broader plan to address and resolve sewer challenges.

Night Shift teams from Waste Management were hard at work in the CBD

The Night Shift teams from Waste Management were hard at work in the CBD, preparing the town for tomorrow's daily activities by keeping the streets clean and well-maintained. The Matjhabeng Local Municipality also encourages street vendors and shop owners in the CBD to actively participate in maintaining a clean and welcoming city.

We would like to express our gratitude to those who are already contributing to keeping our city tidy and invite others to join in these efforts to ensure a clean and vibrant environment for everyone.
