Bluff communities have all been inconvenienced by the Pipeline Construction - BET wants to know from you how much you have been inconvenienced and what compensation you have received from SAPREF or ENGEN?


















WHAT COMPENSATION DO YOU THINK THAT SAPREF & ENGEN OFFER THE BLUFF COMMUNITIES FOR THEM TO PUMP THEIR DANGEROUS PRODUCTS THROUGH OUR SUBURB?

I live in Byng Avenue, and when they dug up our road I had months of endless problems - from abuse from the workers, to being ignored by SAPREF PRO Rep., to my dogs being tormented, to my water being cut (no notification from Sapref), to damage to my car and my husband's week old car due to our driveway being dug up and patched with sandbags

I stay in Kingsley Gardens which is about 1km away from the actual explosion. My daughter is asthmatic and we have managed to get her asthma under control and she has not had to use her pump for some months now. After the explosion, we have had to use her pump on Wednesday and Thursday morning and yesterday I had to wipe black soot out of her nose...coincidence...I think not, oh ja and by the way my daughter is only three.

I think as residents of the Bluff we have been MORE than patient with contractors and have tried our level best to obey very confusing road detours.... in saying that, I witnessed a contracter yelling at the top of his voice at a motorist telling her that he had never come accross such &%#@*&^ impatient people in his life!!!?! I'm guessing he does not live here.

As a rep on the road I am shocked at the state of the roads on the bluff. I travel the whole of Durban, North and south and have yet to come accross such chaos! I call for the resignation of contractors and others in Sapref and Engen that are supposed to be taking our safety and livelyhood into consideration!!

I live on Lighthouse rd and on Friday the 23rd Nov I counted a total of 47 heavy duty trucks come down this road. These trucks had no destination in the Bluff by mearly used this road to get to Bayhead road. Alot of them use this route so they can avoid the weigh bridge on Bayhead rd. Surly this is agains the law for these heavy duty trucks to go through a residential area? Does anyone know the ruling on this??
