On the footage, some residents can be seen risking their lives trying to lift up the cables in order for vehicles to pass by. The MMC for Economic Development and Ward 97 councillor, Leah Knott, indicated that she has escalated the problem to City Power. She said they will be attending to the situation as soon as they have access.
