March 26, 2025

THE eThekwini Municipality has approved an additional R3 million to replace the failed furnace at Tongaat Crematorium, bringing the total allocation to R8 million.

- MONISHKA GOVENDER

This urgent intervention comes after the facility's complete breakdown in January, leaving northern region residents without cremation services for religious and cultural ceremonies,

Yesterday the eThekwini Municipality’s Executive Committee (Exco) approved an additional R3 million to the initial allocation of R5 million for the replacement of the furnace at the Tongaat Crematorium.

For many years, the existing cremator had repeated breakdowns before completely failing on January 24, leaving the crematorium closed, having no crematorium in the northern region.

Through technical assessments, it was confirmed that the furnace had reached the end of its lifespan and a full replacement was necessary.
