City of Windhoek Steps Up Pothole Repairs to Improve Road Safety and Mobility

City of Windhoek Steps Up Pothole Repairs to Improve Road Safety and Mobility. The City of Windhoek has ramped up its road maintenance efforts, with pothole repair teams currently working on Green Mountain Road in the Goreangab Dam area as part of an ongoing initiative to improve driving conditions across the city.

Crews have been deployed daily — rain or shine, weekdays and weekends — to restore damaged road surfaces and address long-standing infrastructure concerns. The repairs are part of the city’s wider plan to enhance road safety, improve mobility, and ensure more reliable transport routes for residents and businesses alike.

In a statement, the City emphasised its commitment to service delivery and thanked the public for their patience during these critical repairs. “We understand the inconvenience caused during these operations and appreciate the cooperation from the community as we work to ensure safer streets for everyone,” the statement read.

The pothole repair drive is being implemented across all constituencies, targeting priority routes and areas that have experienced significant wear and tear. By restoring road integrity, the City aims to reduce vehicle damage risks, ease traffic flow, and support local economic activity by maintaining functional transport corridors.

As the work continues, residents are encouraged to report road defects and remain alert when driving near repair sites. The City reaffirmed its goal of building a more responsive maintenance system that addresses issues proactively and keeps Windhoek’s infrastructure in working order.
