The Department can confirm that the road D2953 is a provincial road under the management of the Mpumalanga province.
As the honourable member may be aware of the separation of powers and responsibility on road (provincial roads) as exclusive functions of the province, the Department does not have plans and is not in any plans to rehabilitate 4.5km of road D2953. The Mpumalanga Department of Public Works and Roads is however carrying out maintenance of the road such as pothole patching and routine maintenance to keep the road safe and usable.
