​​​​​The Joburg Roads Agency (JRA) Depot in Region F has undergone a much-needed refurbishment, improving both its functionality and appearance after years of neglect due to budget constraints.​ Depot Manager Chris Bruyn welcomed the transformation, saying the improvements had lifted morale and restored pride among staff.

​“The depot was previously an eyesore, and both employees and councillors often felt embarrassed. Now, with fresh paint, new tiles, and working facilities, it has become a space we can be proud of," he said.

The upgrade is part of JRA CEO Zweli Nyathi's commitment to refurbish depots across the city, ensuring they are well-maintained and presentable.

The renovation included fixing long-standing plumbing problems, repainting, tiling, and strengthening security measures to better safeguard the City's resources. These changes not only enhance daily operations but also create a more welcoming environment for staff, councillors, and the public.

“With these upgrades, the depot is better equipped to serve the people of Johannesburg with renewed professionalism and commitment," Bruyn added.
