Western Cape Premier Helen Zille has promised that construction on the N2 Gateway project will resume in the next few months.
She addressed residents of Blikkiesdorp, near Delft, on Wednesday after they had bombarded her with their housing concerns.
Zille accepted an invitation from the residents, under the impression that they wanted to address education issues.
Some residents complained they have been on the housing waiting list for more than 10 years.
Zille promised the province’s housing allocation process would be transparent.
Residents accused the mayor of being like her political counterparts, the ANC, and that she would not bring about any change in their lives.
Zille was adamant however that something would be done, but that it would take time.
“There are huge numbers of people waiting, and we have to do it in a proper way and in a sustainable way.” - Eyewitness News
