Bela-Bela’s Operation Fiela campaign

The Bela-Bela Local Municipality has embarked on a clean-up programme to tidy up public spaces.

Operation Fiela, which when loosely translated means “operation mopping up”, kicked of last Tuesday 15 May.

According to municipal spokesperson, Kabelo Mosito, the main objective of the campaign was to tidy up public spaces, such as recreation parks, streets and public facilities.

He said the clean-up campaign started in the Bela-Bela central business district, and was scheduled to move over to the Waterfront.

From the Waterfront the clean-up roadshow was scheduled to move to the local township.

Other residential areas such as Spa Park, Masakhane, Vingerkraal and Rapotokwane were being earmarked, for a makeover as well.

Mosito said during the campaign volunteers would be fixing blocked drainage pipelines, repainting road markings, and the replacement of missing or damaged traffic signs. Malfunctioning street lamps were also on the priority list.
