We’re beefing up our fleet to improve service delivery, which saw 5️⃣ waste compactor trucks and 4️⃣ bakkies🛻 handed over by Cllr Andile Mngwevu, who heads the Roads and Transport Planning portfolio, to Cllr Leshaka Manamela, who heads the Environmental Resources and Waste Management portfolio.
In handing over the vehicles, MMC Mngwevu encouraged the teams who will be operating these vehicles to take good care of them, in an effort to minimise breakdowns and provide consistent, reliable service delivery.
MMC Manamela called on depot officials to prioritise their work and take a proactive stance against illegal dumping. He also expressed appreciation for the additional bakkies that will go a long way to assist supervisors on the ground to monitor operations in real time.
🚛Vehicle Deployment Update!
Of the 5 new rear-end waste compactor trucks:
➡️ 3 will be housed at the Springs depot
➡️ 2 will operate from the Alberton depot
As for the 4 new bakkies:
🔍 2 will support landfill site monitoring
🛠️ 2 will be used at the Boksburg depot for management and supervision.
All vehicles come equipped with tracking and telematics systems to monitor driver behaviour and fuel usage, helping improve efficiency and accountability.
