DENIED ALLEGATIONS
THE Emfuleni Local Municipality (ELM) has strongly denied allegations that its traffic department has collapsed, following reports that a service provider allegedly removed vital traffic control equipment and data.
The municipality has labelled the claims as exaggerated and misleading, assuring residents that traffic operations are still functional.
This comes after the Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus) raised concerns that the absence of functioning traffic control systems could result in a spike in traffic violations and lawlessness on the roads.
The party claims the department lost access to all fine records from 2021 to 16 July 2025 after critical equipment was removed.
“The removed equipment includes speed cameras and cameras used to record motor vehicle accidents. The service provider removed its equipment before the end of its contract, because the Municipality failed to pay. A new system was implemented on 16 July this year”
