The delay in the revamping of the Park Road Police Station in Bloemfontein has a very negative impact on service delivery.
This was revealed by MEC for Community Safety in the Free State, MaQueen Letsoha-Mathae. She was speaking during an oversight visit of incomplete government projects, conducted by Minister for Public Works and Infrastructure Sihle Zikalala.
The facility has been unable to provide quality service delivery to the community for about six years, due to the delay of the completion of its construction. At inception the project cost the department R62 million. Residents explain their experiences at the facility. “The delay in the police station is making things worse in school, we find it difficult to submit things on the due date because of the delay in the police station,” another resident explains.“So, it really had a very negative impact, even on the personnel itself of SAPS, because most of the time you find that even during this delay, they were not able to serve the communities.
