New Year's message
A message from the Acting Director of the Alexandra Renewal
Project...
2008 was a fulfilling year for the ARP in that we were able to
sustain the momentum in housing delivery and were even able to
increase the tempo of delivery.
All the available land on the Far East Bank has now been developed or
large housing projects are under construction and all will be
completed by end 2009.
The developmental thrust will remain the provision of new and upgraded
housing stock but the focus will shift towards Old Alexandra and more
specifically the redevelopment of the M1 Madala, Helen Joseph and M2
Nobuhle hostels and one or two smaller developments.
Preparatory work will continue to ready the land in Linbro
Park/Modderfontein for housing development beyond 2010 to ensure that
the momentum in housing delivery is not lost.
Related social facilities and the provision of facilities to
broaden the economic base in Greater Alexandra will continue to be
part of new housing environments to ensure that sustainable human
settlements are established in the process.
An exciting year with considerable challenges lies ahead but by
working together with the community we will be able to overcome those
and ensure that the lives of more people are going to see an
improvement in 2009.
