We are pleased to report that most of the storm damage repairs are either in progress or have been completed. Our dedicated team has been working around the clock to ensure that all affected areas are addressed promptly. The trees obstructing the boardwalk have been cut, and the boardwalk has been repaired, ensuring safe and enjoyable access for all visitors and residents who frequent this scenic route. The clearing of all storm debris is expected to be finalised this week, as Parks is currently focused on major work in the Tongaat area. Additionally, many signs were damaged during the storm, and we are actively replacing these signs as stock becomes available to ensure clear and safe navigation for all.<\/p>\n
