Department of Police, Roads and Transport back to business─── TSHEHLA KOTELI 05:51 Fri, 18 Mar 2022
The Department of Police, Roads and Transport, together with its key offices, are back to full operation after water was fully restored.
Operations were temporarily halted earlier this week due to the Manguang Metro Municipality restricting water to the department's buildings for non-payment of water bills.
The buildings affected by the issue were the Lengau Testing Centre, Perm Building, Medfontein Building, and Anchor House Building. The Metro restricted water to these buildings in an attempt to recover close to R8 billion owed to them.
Residential debt to the metro amounts to over R4.5 billion and business debt is at over R1 billion.
