A
nother major sewer line collapse in Montague Gardens has sparked renewed concerns over ageing infrastructure, traffic disruptions, and environmental risks in the
area. Last week a 900mm bulk sewer pipe beneath a section of Montague Drive gave way, prompting an immediate emergency response from the City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation Directorate. This marks the 13th sewer collapse in the area following
12 similar incidents in 2023 and 2024, which were previously reported by TygerBurger. The ongoing failures are widely attributed to severe corrosion from sulphuric acid and the age of the infrastructure. “City teams were deployed within minutes to cordon off
the affected area, implement traffic safety measures, and begin assessing the extent of the damage,” said Zahid Badroodien, the City’s Mayco member for water and sanitation.
