raffic departments in Nelson Mandela Bay have been operating in chaotic circumstances for some time and are slowly getting worse. Two of the main issues at the moment are the fact that the Uitenhage Traffic Department cannot currently issue professional driving permits (PDPs) owing to a broken machine, and the extremely long queues for eye tests at the Korsten Traffic Department.

“There are currently no spares available for the equipment and there is currently a national tender out for the new equipment to replace the faulty equipment. “This will greatly alleviate the challenges being experienced. “The municipality is also in constant communication with the national Department of Transport in an effort to prioritise our challenges. “The problems being experienced will be resolved once the tender has been awarded and new equipment issued.”
