For the last few weeks, I’ve been watching as our municipality ripped up perfectly good – and functional – brick paving on the centre islands on Old Pretoria Road, and replaced with it crushed rock.
Have you ever tried to walk on that crushed rock? It may look pretty, but its pretty useless.
This ridiculous expense is being incurred when our roads are full of potholes, and finding functional traffic lights is the exception not the rule.
