Laudium’s R55 road reopened after 30 metre sinkhole repaired
MEC for the Department of Roads Ismail Vadi on Thursday morning officially opened the R55 in Laudium which was closed a few months ago due to a massive sinkhole.
Vadi was joined by his City of Tshwane counterpart MMC Sheila Senkubuge and numerous officials from the City, provincial government and contractors who worked tirelessly to close the sinkhole.
The sinkhole caused panic in the community when it formed, prompting urgent response and visits from premier David Makhura and mayor Solly Msimanga, who both expressed serious concerns.
Community members and numerous workers from companies contracted and subcontracted to bring the sinkhole to ground level gathered inside a hall in the community’s Sunrise School.
