For years, residents of Sebokeng and Evaton have been forced to use an unsafe makeshift pedestrian bridge to cross a stream that overflows during the rainy season.
This is because a decade ago, the Emfuleni municipality demolished a bridge that used to be about 100m from the makeshift bridge. The old bridge was used by both pedestrians and vehicles.
However, the municipality has not rebuilt its replacement, as per the initial plan, claiming it does not have the money.
