Ministry begins removal of street vendors on Mandela Ave

Vendors’ stalls on Mandela Avenue

Over the last three days, the Ministry of Public Works has begun an operation to remove street vendors from the bustling Mandela Avenue and the South Ruimveldt area.

This action has sparked much dissatisfaction among the affected vendors who claim they were not given adequate notice.

In response, Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill, maintains that his engineers have diligently provided notifications over the past several weeks, but no vendor heeded the notices issued.
