(eThekwini Municipality)
For more than a decade, vagrants and drug addicts have played a cat-and-mouse game with municipality officials at the southern entrance to the Durban CBD, commonly referred to as the Albert Park area.
The municipality had been moving vagrants away from this zone, only for them to reoccupy another plot of land within the zone.
For two months, they had occupied the pavement and traffic lanes of Che Guevara Road, making it an unsightly and dangerous intersection for motorists and businesses in the lower Umbilo area.
On Friday, the municipality focused on street sweeping, litter picking, removal of illegal dumping, and dismantling of the unlawful structures.
