The Citizen

The Johannesburg municipality has marked its recent revival with the return of a former family favourite.

- Jarryd Westerdale

Christmas lights will once again adorn the streets of the city, as mayor Dada Morero continues his drive to transform public opinion.

The city received a cosmetic makeover in the weeks and months leading up to the G20 summit last weekend, with Morero vowing to maintain the standard that was set.

The Christmas lights installation will feature the same lights used in previous decades, all refurbished by City Power.

Lights will stretch across Maboneng and Gandhi Square, as well as sections of Commissioner, Wolmarans, Noord, Rissik, Eloff, Harrison, King George, Smit and De Villiers streets.

Fourteen displays have been set up along De Villiers Street, with more on the way in the coming weeks.
