The Katima Mulilo Town Council has begun repairing potholes and damaged roads after heavy rains, backed by a N$4 million budget.
Motorists earlier this year expressed their dissatisfaction with the dilapidated state of the roads, saying their cars were being damaged and their mobility was limited.
Katima Mulilo mayor Kabende Kabende yesterday told The Namibian that road repairs could not start sooner, mostly because of the rain and the challenges the council faced in sourcing bitumen from outside the region.
Kabende said on top of the N$4 million for road maintenance for the current financial year by the Road Fund Administration (RFA), an additional N$9 million has been allocated for road works.
