TRUCKS BLOCKING ENTRANCES AND STREETS IN FRANSEN STREET, CHAMDOR, KRUGERSDORP

We are sick and tired of the trucks piling down Fransen Street to make collections at Chamdor, Krugersdorp. This morning a truck from BHIT Bulk Logistics, truck number ***, registration number KBD125MP blocked the entrance to our premises making it nearly impossible to enter the premises. We also had to drive in the one lane of upcoming traffic as the truck were blocking one of the lanes.

When we have to leave in the afternoon, we cannot see if there are any upcoming traffic and we have to drive forward bit by bit in order to see whether there is any upcoming traffic. This is a threat to our safety and I had a couple of near misses where upcoming cars nearly crashed into me. Most of the drivers just sit in their seats looking at us, ignoring us and don’t give any assistance whatsoever to help us crossing the street.

Last year in the Krugersdorp News it was said that SAB Chamdor is aware of the problem and is working on a solution. That was in April 2020. It is now more that a year later and nothing has been done.

Should anything happens to me, my colleagues or any other person working in Fransen Street, SAB will be held responsible for any damage and loss of vehicles, injuries caused in accidents and loss of lives.

We made so many complaints in the past and every time were given empty promises. We are not prepared to risk our safety any longer.

Please sort this out because it is becoming unbearable and unacceptable.
