I am signing this petition because the infrastructure in Ekurhuleni the economic hub of South Africa is affected by the ailing infrastructure. These potholes are not hazardous to the motorists but they are slowing down the economic growth in the CoE. We therefore urge the MMC of Roads to make this his priority number one!(Ekurhuleni, 2019-03-01)

Many potholes all over the show but even after registering and reporting on Ekurhuleni, they are not being repaired for months. Many vehicles have been damaged due to the fact that these holes get bigger and more dangerous.(Wychwood Germiston, 2019-03-01)

I am signing because me myself logged several pothole issues via My Ekurhuleni App but nothing gets done. These issues are there on the system for weeks and months already. Also dangerous op manhole in Oak Avenue I have reported a while ago and nothing was done to it. Street markings and lines been reported , eg Barbara road and nothing done to it. Accidents already happened because of the potholes and invisible lines. Ekurhuleni must wake up and do their job properly by themselves. The public cant babysit EMM on each and every issue.(Germiston, 2019-03-01)

I'm tired of dodging potholes, sometimes unsuccessfully and I'm extremely frustrated by the lack of markings on our roads, that make our roads dangerous to commute, especially when people don't stop as there are no stop signs and road markings are unclear, causing several near misses and making it a nightmare to get out my driveway, never mind getting to your destination safely!(Klippoortje AH, 2019-03-01)

The conditions of roads and pavements surrounding the school keeps immediate danger to the 1200 learners and their parents. The school is not even 500 meter away from the Germiston Stadium. Due to the numerous visitors to the Stadium the poor condition of the roads and pavements surrounding the school carries even more danger.(Germiston, 2019-03-01)

I am fed up with the condition of our roads in and around Germiston and suburbs. The fixing of potholes and road marking has been non existent in the areas in the 23 years that I have been living in the area. I am done paying for services that is non-existent. I for one is going to start paying my monthly rates and taxes into a savings account until I am satisfied that CoE are giving us value for our money. If CoE so much as touches my power to be switched of due to me witholding payment I will start legal proceedings of my own. This needs to be taken seriously by CoE and the people. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH CoE!!!!!!!!!!!!!(Germiston, 2019-03-01)

1 - Potholes and washaways are dangerous to vehicular traffic.2 - If potholes and washaways are not promptly and timeously attended to they lead to extra costs to repair which is a waste of my tax rands.
3 - Germiston has become a City renowned for only doing a half job in most things including maintaining infrastructure.

We keep on paying for half done crappy, not even up to 30% standards. Suppose rhis is what is seen as Proudly SA..... Paint markings on the roads don't last, etc etc. Everything is done with a mindset of do half job which is seen as job creation. Sure everyone can write books on the condition of our roads. Pathethic is the most harsh word I am allowed to use as I might end up behind bars if I would express the correct words. Actually we can try and write a dictionery with new words that might describe the current deteriorating SA conditions and the tax payers frustrations. There is just no platform for Tax Payers to against corruption. How is this possible? It is supposed to be a democratic country but clearly run by lying, corrupt and communist dictators.(Primrose, Marlands, 2019-03-19)
