Cape Town is investing R285.7 million to update and improve its waste management services, including the procurement of new machinery such as refuse compactors, trucks, generators, and street washers. This initiative will enhance the reliability and operational resilience of the service amidst persistent challenges such as loadshedding and illegal dumping. The city’s commitment to cleanliness and effective budget utilization is reflected in this project, which emphasizes the importance of timely equipment replacement and optimized repair and maintenance programs.
