What a difference 10 weeks can make 👏
From the devastation left by the floods, to rebuilding the roadbed, to vehicles once again travelling across the Gouritsmond Bridge.
Still much work ahead across the province but we are making progress 💪

Infrastructure is no longer measured simply in numbers - it's measured by the opportunities it creates.
At SALGA today, I reaffirmed our commitment to partnering with local govs to deliver safer roads, integrated housing & faster service delivery for all our residents. 🏠🏗️
