infrastructure but which, due to lack of maintenance, are currently not functioning
effectively or efficiently.
- The installation of additional capacity in areas that are subject to densification
resulting from urbanisation and the changes in land use.
- The provision of infrastructure to areas of ‘greenfield’ developments i.e. the
mining belt, and the northern and southern extremities of the metropolitan area.

the GJMC which have historically enjoyed high standards.
