A local councillor's recent oversight visit has highlighted the hazardous state of the intersection as entities finalise repair quotations.

Johannesburg Roads Agency (JRA) confirmed, on October 30, that the hazardous reinstatement on Junction Road and Corlett Drive is pending a work order from Johannesburg Water before JRA can undertake repairs.

This follows an oversight inspection conducted on October 13 by Ward 74 councillor Belinda Kayser-Echeozonjoku, who expressed dissatisfaction with the state of the road surface.

Khaya Gqibitole, JRA head of regional operations, said: “Both entities are in the process of finalising this order and an estimated time of restoration will be provided soon. The additional defect reported on Junction Road, at the corner Linden Road, is a damaged storm water structure. JRA and Johannesburg Water are currently finalising a quotation for the repairs to be undertaken by JRA.”

Gqibitole added that the JRA continues to collaborate with Johannesburg Water to manage road reinstatements across various regions and will ensure all affected sections are reinstated to their original conditions for the safety of all road users.
