From stormwater repairs to post-rain clean-ups, August was a month of visible improvements across the Ballito precinct.
6 Stormwater Drains Repaired
One of the month’s key infrastructure achievements was the repair of six stormwater drains in the Ballito Business Park, helping improve drainage and support the long-term resilience of the precinct’s road network. The raod surface repairs on Ballito Drive were also completed, marking a vast improvement for drivers.
Over 5000 Refuse Bags and Dog Waste Bags Used
While many of the month’s projects focused on infrastructure and public space maintenance, the team’s day-to-day cleaning operations continued at scale. During August, the Ballito UIP team utilised close to:
- 5180 refuse bags
- 5450 dog waste bags
Grass Cutting, Weeding & Garden Improvements
Routine precinct maintenance remained a major focus throughout August. Work undertaken by the BUIP team included:
- Extensive grass cutting and weeding throughout the precinct
- Replanting of selected garden areas
- Sweeping of roads and public spaces
- Vegetation cutbacks and clean-ups
- Final clean-up operations following the Ballito Pro event
Roads and Public Spaces Improved
The team also completed several targeted maintenance projects during the month, including:
- Painting curbing at two intersections
- Road surface repairs on Ballito Drive
- Repairing a large rail along the Ballito Promenade
- Precinct-wide clean-up works following heavy rainfall events
Through proactive maintenance, landscaping and infrastructure care, Ballito UIP continues to help create a precinct that residents and visitors can be proud of.
