The growing number of potholes across Johannesburg, particularly in areas like Randburg, is raising serious concerns about declining service delivery and the state of municipal infrastructure. Despite the city allocating nearly R150 million towards road maintenance, residents say conditions on the ground tell a different story, with damaged roads, crumbling pavements, and little visible progress.

The situation is increasingly affecting motorists, who face daily safety risks navigating deteriorating roads. Poor visibility at night and during rainy weather worsens the problem, intensifying frustration among residents who question whether public funds are being effectively used to address the city’s infrastructure challenges.
