No street lights allow criminal activities to go unseen

(Primrose Hill, 2021-02-03)

#207

Our street lights have been out of order since 9 January 2021, the street is very dark at night and my husband's working shifts and get home @ 24:00 and that is dangerous for him to open the gate that time of night in the dark.

(Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

#209

I am signing because I want street lights fixed.

(Ekurhuleni, 2021-02-03)

Its a security risk to drive at night and have to stop at the two 4 way stop in First Street Marlands. This is also a road that residents use from different suburbs to connect on to the N 12 highway.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#213

We are getting no service, what has happened to the money paid for rates & service? It's getting worse by the day. Huge potholes, trees not being trimmed, thus falling over. Parks not being kept mown and clean, refuse not being collected, sewage flowing out all over. Continuous water pipes bursting, interruption of power and the list goes on.....

This is an issue that needs urgent attention.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

I reported my street light out on the 5th January, with a turnaround time of 5 days. It is now the 3rd of February and nothing has been done. What is bei
ng done with our payments we make?

Without operational Street lights crime is going up

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#221

I'm signing this petition as action needs to be taken in the maintenance of our city where we reside & to stop the deterioration of the infrastructure which is paid for by the residents & tax payers due to maladministration & wasteful expenditure by the municipality officials appointed to serve the community.

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

#225

There is NO maintenance in out once beautiful city. Streetlights, power outages, parks, pavements, roads, potholes.... total lack of commitment from council.
I pay my rates & my taxes & get nothing in return for it.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#226

We demand the urgent and speedy appointment of street light contractors to ensure the adequate functioning of street lights in our communities.

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

#227

Thi street light outside our house has not worked for over a year

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#233

Terrible service delivery experienced by CoE...
Streetlights are our first line of defense against crime

(Wychwood, 2021-02-03)

#234

My street light in front of my house is currently not working.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#235

The street light at number 4goodman has been out for more than a year, we have complained, no. Results
For our safety, thanks

(Johannesburg, 2021-02-03)

#236

Because our streetlights on Zuurfontein highway is ou for over a year

(Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

#238

Street lights that are not working need to be repaired as a matter of urgency to ensure the safety of residence and to assist the police to beter patrol the areas at night.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#244

It is in dire need of repair and it's pointless that we have to keep on logging calls for something that needs to be maintained by the council for our safety

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#245

Street lights have bee out for months, this is a safety risk to all affected.

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#251

Our lights never work and we stay on a dangerous curve in the road

(Gauteng, 2021-02-03)

#253

I'm so scared to sleep at night because there are no lights. Even on one evening all the lights from Brakpan passing Lakeside mall highway were off. Please put the lights back on. Yet the atolls are on. Mxm y'all make naar

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#255

I am directly impacted by this issue, lights have not worked for over a month. You can see nothing on the street at night. This has both a safety and security impact to our suburb.

(Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

#256

My street lights have not been working for months it’s ridiculous!

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#257

This is a huge safety concern for me and my family

(Kempton Park, 2021-02-03)

#261

We pay our taxes and rates and deserve to have Street lights working for our safety.

(Benoni, 2021-02-03)

#263

Fully supporting this petition. I have stated at length previously that I believe municipality heads are incompetent and just figurehead placements to keep chairs warm. I have also stated at length how I would go about addressing challenges faced so not rehashing that. No streetlights = free reign to criminals + streetlights have been issue since way before lockdown

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#265

Because the community of the municipality under ekhuruleni are plugged into darkness streets due to lack of lights

(Ekhuruleni, 2021-02-03)

#266

I've been without streetlights since the beginning of November 2020, I have reported it on numerous occassions and NOTHING gets done. I have also reported the exposed wires due to the missing cover on my streetlight pole which has been missing since APRIL 2020!!!!!

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#267

Safety of residents in jeopardy because of lights not working

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

#268

As a paying resident of Ekurhuleni I do not feel safe with the lights being out of working order...

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#270

The street lights have been off for the longtime now, even the rubbish jas not been collected for 2 weeks now, service delivery is very poor

(Germiston(South Africa), 2021-02-03)

#274

I have sent numerous emails to the relevant people and nothing gets done! Numerous complaints were lodged on the app and when you look again the matter has been closed without any action of the complaint. its pathetic that the community has to go to this extend to have stuff sorted where its an actual job for the council to make sure the are is in working order as the community is paying for this service. If you don't want to work then step aside let a private company do the work and deliver a service

(Primrose, 2021-02-03)

Did report how many times ROCKYWAY SUNNYROCK lights out from 41 to 56
Rockyway cables hanging in street and fence of 41 Rockyway Sunnyrock

(Sunnyrock, 2021-02-03)

#284

Gat vol of people not doing there work, we as rate payers, pay there salaries, but no work gets done

(ALBERTON, 2021-02-03)

#285

I logged a call already in 2019 but to no avail up to now the lamp pole is still not working in front if my home nor a few others in the street and there are elderly people staying here and this is dangerous as you can not see down the road. They do not even respond to any communication. They just don’t give a Shit. But if a councilor was staying in the are then you do not have a problem😡🤬

(Gauteng, 2021-02-03)

#288

This is for security

(Boksburg, 2021-02-03)

#291

I pay my municipal account and that includes street light's for safety

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#292

I am concerned around the safety of our community

(Gauteng, 2021-02-03)

#293

Our street lights have not been working for 4 months, it encourages criminals, we are still paying every month for a service not received !!

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#297

The street lights outside my house are never on and never work our road is so dark and we are a corner house... We have had muktiole breakins in tje are and a family was recently tied up

(Johannesburg, 2021-02-03)

#298

No service delivery but we pay

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#300

Dark streets are dangerous

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

#302

We are tired of reporting and getting no action. My first report was beginning November 2020. Our basic Constitutional right to safety is being violated

(Johanneaburg, 2021-02-03)

Petition of the street lights

(Johannesburg, 2021-02-03)

#307

I’m signing because we haven’t had any street lights since 2020 and I would like the council to intervene so that our street can be lit up at night as we cannot see anything once it becomes dark. This poses a risk for the safety of the community.

(Johannesburg, 2021-02-03)

#312

The lack of basic maintenance and necessary repairs to street lights is not only the result of poor management, incompetence and grand theft but is a crime against the citizens of Ekurhuleni. Boksburg in particular has a huge number of major roads with km after km of darkness.

(Benoni, 2021-02-03)

#320

My business is in Alberton North and we have many power cuts due to poor maintence. The street lights are either not working or they are on 24/7.

(Alberton is not in a good condition, 2021-02-03)

#321

All the lights in Warbler Road, Elspark have been out since September 2018

(Elspark, 2021-02-03)

#323

I’m a rate payer and I believe that we should keep all infrastructures running to make the country livable. We have a high crime rate snd if streets are put into darkness it will just escalate

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#324

When driving at night in an unfamiliar area, its not easy and even worse if there are no street lights working.
Dangerous, because you cannot see criminals hiding behind bushes and things if there is no light.

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

#325

Services in Primrose are bad...wheely bins not collected on designated days...pavements are a disgrace!
Still have to pay every month!!

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#326

The street light that don’t work is a major safety risk in Alberton. I had a few weeks ago a guy that tried to get entry into my property because he saw a gap with the street light not working. If it wasn’t for my dog it might if been a very different story.

(Alberton, 2021-02-03)

(Solheim, 2021-02-03)

#338

We live in dark alleys and I feel that's why we have so many house brakes. It is unsafe! We pay exorbitant rates and this is just unacceptable!

(Boksburg, 2021-02-03)

#341

The streets are very dark and it is not safe for residents...we are sitting ducks

(Alberante, 2021-02-03)

#353

It's a hazard driving at night with criminals waiting at traffic lights and stop streets.

(Boksburg, 2021-02-03)

#354

This is an issue that has gotten out of hand and not attended to by appointed council

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

(Kempton park, 2021-02-03)

#378

I am paying for services not rendered street lights are a disaster, non excistend. There is no maintenance, only petitions and social media will get the council to do something! Can't see that any supervision been done ever. It is a total disgrace if what has become of our City

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

#381

Street lights malfunctioning for years

(Germiston, 2021-02-03)

I am concerned with the safety of my family when entering and exiting my property in hours of Darkness. The Governing body keep reminding us of safety from the Pandemic but they fail to safe guard residents from criminal acts. Which means this Pandemic a lie...

This has been an ongoing problem for many many years, always difficult excuses , stories why certain things can not be done.
The crime os getting worse and the necessary tools that help are non functional. urgent intervention is needed and repairs to be done.
