The City has earmarked the next 120 days for ramping up the efficiency of service delivery across the metro, in a bid to improve the general quality of life in Johannesburg.
The multidisciplinary approach to effective service delivery focuses on the needs of communities rather than what’s been prescribed. It also focuses a basket of all municipal service improvements in one area over a sustained period, to enhance its liveability.
The Executive Mayor, Cllr Geoff Makhubo, who launched the citywide programme officially in Ivory Park this week says it aims to improve the quality of delivery of basic services in mostly underdeveloped areas.

Broken glass, steel wire, strewn paper and plastic are being cleared from blocked stormwater drains across the City, as the municipality tackles flooding and illegal dumping, which endanger the integrity of the road infrastructure.
The Executive Mayor, Cllr Geoff Makhubo urges residents to stop littering, as this was wrecking stormwater drainage systems.
“We’d like to encourage residents not to litter as most of these drainage systems are blocked by litter,” says Cllr Makhubo.
The Mayor notes that protecting the City’s roads and stormwater infrastructure is everyone’s responsibility.
